What nutritionist failed to see in the French is a people with a completely different relationship to food than we have. They seldom snack, eat small portions from small plates, don’t go back for second helpings, and eat most of their food at long, leisurely meals shared with other people. The rules governing these behaviours may matter more than any magic nutrient in their diet.

Break the rules once in awhile. Obsessing over food rules is bad for your happiness, and probably for your health too. Our experience over the past few decades suggest that dieting and worrying too much about nutrition have made us no healthier or slimmer; cultivating a relaxed attitude towards food is important. Everything in moderation.

Compost your food; plant a vegetable garden if you have the space, a window box if you don’t

Do you eating at a table. If we eat while we’re working, or watching TV or driving, we eat mindlessly – and as a result eat a lot more than we would if we were eating at a table, paying attention to what we’re doing.

Serve a proper portion and don’t go back for seconds. One adage says you should never eat a portion of animal protein bigger than your fist. Another says you should eat no more food at a meal then it would fit into the bowl form by your hands when cupped together. If you’re going to break the rule on seconds, at least wait several minutes before doing it
