046. The Grazing Dilemma: Navigating Memorial Day Cookouts and Everyday Snacking


Listen Later

In this episode of The Potential Project, we delve into the concept of "grazing"—the unplanned, repetitive eating of small amounts of food. Post-Memorial Day weekend, many of us reflect on the countless cookouts and parties where food is perpetually available, leading to mindless snacking. Grazing often goes unnoticed, perceived as the opposite of overeating, yet it can significantly impact our health.

Join us as we discuss the subtle dangers of grazing, especially for those working from home with constant kitchen access. We'll explore why we gravitate towards processed, unsatiating foods when we're bored, dehydrated, or stressed, and how this habit can add an extra 500-1000 calories to our daily intake. Tune in for tips on recognizing grazing behavior and strategies to manage it, helping you maintain a balanced and mindful approach to eating, even during festive seasons.
