If we really want to start eating better, psychologists have Something that can help us. Something that, in addition, can be summarized in one sentence: that “our food must be governed by a plan and not by our mood.”
The problem, of course, is that plans sometimes extend checks that our day to day cannot pay. And it is not ours, like He explained to us The professor of the University of Zaragoza, Juan Ramón Barrada, “if you live surpassed by life, leave for tomorrow It is not procrastinating, “is surviving.
Therefore, the batching cooking is so good idea.
Batching Batching? Are we already with neologies and “modernuras”? Yes and no. Although it is true that it has now become fashionable with that name, the truth is that this strategy is a classic of foods around the world: cooking in a short time all the food of the week, optimizing resources and food preparations.
That is, it is about organizing the menu in such a way that each preparation and each food serves to make several dishes. That ensures diversity and reduces preparation time.
What advantages do you have? Many, really. How our DAP companions explainit is a strategy that brings us closer to homemade food, friends with the kitchen and allows us to get away from ultraprocessed, Fast food and elaborate food away from home; It allows us to reduce the times we dedicate to the kitchen and organize our food; And finally, it helps us save.
But, above all, it can help us control what we eat. Because it is a powerful tool when “facilitating” the fulfillment of those plans we talked about before. After all, one of the main problems we have to carry them out is that, at the time of truth, we do not feel like it.
Overwhelmed by day -to -day pressures, our body asks us ‘Conford Food’; Another neologism that comes to say “Leave yourself of zarandajas and give me something that is rich (with all saturated fats, sugars and carbohydrates that is possible)”. And the truth is that this feeling is not going to disappear, but if we have prepared the food – as the batch cooking advises us – to overcome temptation becomes easier.
Not only easier, also safer. As Giuseppe Russolillo explainedpresident of the Spanish Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, “the population is not fully aware that the methods that use weight losing are extremes and can put their health at risk and that the recovery of the lost weight is frequent.” This also affects many attempts to eat better.
And it is not necessary to be so aggressive.
A balanced meal is a day won. Because “for what we can extract from current investigations, there are three tips that can be given to anyone: eat healthy, exercise and accept your body,” Barrada told us. Hence, obsess with weight is a mistake (quite serious, besides) and the best strategy is to introduce small habits in our day to day.
