The most important thing is to pay attention to how much food you eat during the day, at what time and what is the benefit ratio? Paying attention to this, you can not only try, but also radically change your habits. I wonder what good habits can counter bad ones? By the way, the abbreviation vs comes from the word versus and means “against” in Latin.
Hearty breakfast vs hungry morning
It has been proven that those who neglect meal number 1 consume 40% more sweets and 55% more sugary drinks during the day than those who always eat breakfast. The payback for a bad habit is extra pounds and a 27% increase in the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Flax Flax vs Chips
Do you love chips and can’t refuse them? There is an alternative! Flaxes (flaxseed crackers) contain proteins, valuable omega‑3 fats (in 1 tbsp twice as much proper fatty acids as in 100 g of salmon!), a huge amount of fiber that quickly satisfies hunger, as well as other valuable compounds. For example, lignans, which combine the properties of natural hormones of phytoestrogens and antioxidants, are hundreds of times more abundant in flax seeds than in any other seeds and plants.
It is important to remember that it takes only 21 days to establish healthy eating habits and implement a healthy approach to nutrition.
Buckwheat noodles vs wheat
It has more protein. And also buckwheat is rich in fiber, useful for digestion and for a slim figure. No wonder the Japanese love buckwheat noodles. Regularly including it in their menu, they also maintain the level of the dopamine hormone, which plays an important role in the processes of motivation and learning, makes us move forward (in every sense), set goals for ourselves and achieve them.

Juice has 45% more calories — mainly due to sugar, however fruits make you feel full much fasterthan juice without pulp (that is, actually fiber). And the benefits of oranges, for example, are much higher than even freshly squeezed juice. This is because before we eat citrus, we clean it and willy-nilly feel first its aroma, and then its taste, which turns into a separate sensory experience.
Adagio vs allegro
Chew slowly, advises the scientific Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism. A fast style of eating does not allow the hormone responsible for the feeling of satiety to be produced, and here it’s not far from overeating. People who eat mindfully and tastefully consume 14 kcal less per hour and still feel fuller. Conclusion: it is necessary to postpone the fork and knife more often during meals.
Mint vs nighttime snack

Due to its strong and peculiar taste, mint suppresses appetite on a physiological level. It is enough to drink mint tea, chew a few fresh leaves or brush your teeth with mint paste. But neither a glass of mojito nor mint chocolate has the same effect, scientists warn.
Espresso vs cappuccino
The type of coffee you prefer can say a lot about your habitual calorie intake. 100 ml of espresso contains only 2–4 kcal, coffee with milk already has about 40 kcal, with sugar — almost 60 (!). Many varieties of the drink, in fact, are a dessert with an energy value of 150–250 kcal, which for lovers of cappuccino, mocha, latte can result in a set of 8 extra pounds per year.
