We, Indian people, are habituated to take 2-3 major meals a day and perhaps a small meal along with it. This practice of taking bigger time intervals between two meals makes the body to store more food in the fat cells to satiate the body’s needs at gap hours. In Japan, people believe in more number of meals with lesser proportions in each serving. This prevents hunger pangs and the body stays healthy.

  1. Walk, Walk & Walk:

It is a very feasible option in India too because like Japan here also we get a variety of fresh fruit in every season.

I have also heard they consume a high amount of fermented green tea leaves in the form of salads which is again a great option for reversing ageing. Nice one though 🙂
