To ensure good health, remember NOT to snack between meals! Eat at a normal/regular time! Sit down, don't stand to eat! Use a plate for meals, not containers! Drink plenty of water before you begin to eat and throughout the day! Chew thoroughly before swallowing! If you have other suggestions, please email jancook@vocabulary.com
