As individuals and especially as we mature we each have unique nutritional needs. Mealtimes according to size, selection and time become bound by deeply established habits over the years and must be reformed as an initial change. In order to try the urgency of any habit appetite the early morning meal for instance, take a drink of water instead, and note if that does not suffice as well as food to allay the craving for something a cup of hot water, with sugar or honey and milk to suit the taste, is amply sufficient. Water will not satisfy a genuine appetite; but it will often effectively allay purely habit-hunger such as that for early breakfast. Experimenting may be necessary but individual body knowledge is not hard to discover. The question, "What is hunger?" is a natural and legitimate one because there are true appetites and false cravings. True hunger for food is indicated by watering of the mouth "- not that watering of the mouth, or profuse flow of saliva, that comes from a pungent stimulant, such as a batch of sweet biscuits, but that which is excited at the thought of some of the simplest of foods, such as bread and butter. From the food available at the time take that first which appeals most strongly to the appetite. It may be a mouthful of soup, a biscuit and cheese or canned fish, or, perhaps a teaspoon of honey . It may be a piece of meat, though it would be unusual for a true appetite to call for this at the beginning of a meal. You can have a life extension experience.
