STILL IN THE XXI CENTURY, people around the world wonder why is it that French women are not fat and look gorgeous displaying their desirable, attractive, feminine bodies. Since 'day one' in their lives, French women are on the side of Mother Nature in every way they can think of.
» Since the jubilant Renaissance in the 1,500s, French people perfected a combination of fresh, seasonal ingredients, quantity of each, and how to cook them. Therefore, they do not have 'recipies' but 'formulas.' If repeated as prescribed, their meals always come out delicious.
» Their meals consist of five or six bites. They take time to savor each one. They eat in a serene and quite environment. They moderately converse with others at the table. The science of Human Nutrition cannot find evidence, but they confirm that not rushing through a meal, a peaceful environment, and avoid talking makes the body assimilate nutrients in the food.
» French women are serious about meals looking good on a plate. Presentation of food is of supreme importance. They do not slap food on a plate and... "Here you are. Eat this."
» French women know what the science of Human Nutrition knows, and that is that eating three or four smaller meals a day is more beneficial than two large meals.
» French women ~as well as men and kids~ dedicate one day a month to eat only apples. Some of them may add a handful of nuts during that day.
» They use health-enhancing cooking practices such as steaming vegetables and fish. Commonly, they steam them with Beef Broth rather than water. Frying, boiling, or microwaving is not considered.
» They drink 6 to 8 ounces of red wine with a meal except breakfast. Often, a meal is followed by slices of baguettes, cheese, and white wine.
» Most of their 'formulas' contain a good amount of a nutrient critical in more ways than one: Fiber. Click the title to read the article 'Benefits of Fiber - Are They Real?'
» They do not conceive certain foods forbidden ~such as pastries, creamy sauces, and cheeses~ as long as they are consumed in moderation.
» They do not enroll in gyms. They do not run. Primarily, it is because most French Women know that Free Radicals accelerate the Aging Process. Expected of wiser people, they have an active lifestyle which is what Mother Nature wants.
What you just read opposes eating foods that come wrapped up in plastic; eating food lacking nutrients; eating large meals; eating in a rush; eating in a noisy environment; eating during a conversation; running outdoors or at the gym wearing out joints and filling their bodies with Free Radicals which scientists do insist that they accelerate the Aging Process.
The knowledge you just gained ~and the one you may gain if you read Recommended Reading below~ lets you construe further why French women are not fat. Yes, they look gorgeous displaying desirable and attractive feminine bodies; but not because of a diet printed with ink on paper.
