What is mindful eating?
Mindfulness is the practice of being present in the moment, and observing the inputs flooding your senses.
At meal time: "Think about how the food looks, how it tastes and smells. What's the texture? What memories
does it bring up? How does it make you feel?" Burton Murray asks. By being mindful at meals, you'll slow the
eating process, pay more attention to your body's hunger and fullness cues, and perhaps avoid overeating.
"It makes you take a step back and make decisions about what you're eating, rather than just going through
the automatic process of see food, take food, eat food," Burton Murray says.
Set yourself up for success in being mindful when you eat by: Removing distractions. Turn off phones, TVs,
and computers. Eat in a peaceful, uncluttered space.
Pacing yourself for a 20-minute meal. Chew your food slowly and put your fork down between bites.

Choose the correct alternative.
(A) The words “Notice”, “Observe”, “Feel”, “Taste”, “Enjoy” are verbs that show how people shouldn’t eat,
especially if they are on a diet.
(B) The words mindful and mindfulness are adjectives that mean in the text “a way of improving your mental
state that involves paying close attention to everything that you are experiencing”.
(C) The verbs notice, observe, feel, taste, enjoy are related to “Think about how the food looks, how it tastes
and smells. What's the texture? What memories does it bring up? How does it make you feel?"
(D) The advices: “Removing distractions. Turn off phones, TVs, and computers. Eat in a peaceful, uncluttered
space” are impossible to follow in the modern life.
(E) “Chew your food “slowly” and put your fork down between bites”. The adjective “slowly” has an important
meaning because it represents how people should eat.

The big idea: why we need a new definition of junk food
Ultra-processed products now make up 60% of our diet – and they’re killing us
Strange as it may seem, food has replaced tobacco as the leading cause of early death globally. Each year,more
people die in America from illnesses caused by poor diet than were killed fighting in every war in US history
combined. In the UK the situation is equally 1. dire. Officially, the health effects of food are entirely due to
its nutritional content – the amount of fat, salt, sugar and fibre it contains. The current system leaves it up
to you to read the detailed information on the pack and decide how much to eat based on recommended
values, and if you have children, you’ll need to know the values for them too. This is nigh-on impossible
for most people – but even if you were able to calculate exactly how much fat, salt and sugar you were
consuming in each 2. mouthful, you would still be neglecting one vital determinant of health – how the
food was processed. You might feel like you’ve heard all this before. People have expressed concern about
“processed food” for a long time, but it’s not always been an easy concept to 3. pin down. After all, we have been processing food for hundreds of thousands of years. The human diet was invented by primarily female
domestic scientists who modified plants and animals by milling, shaking, pounding and grinding them, or
altering them via fermentation and heat, before salting, smoking and drying them for preservation. Food
processing has shaped almost every aspect of our bodies: we have the shortest guts of any animal our size
because part of their job is outsourced to our kitchens. We are the only animal that must process its food to
survive. Processing is fine.
But just over a decade ago a team of scientists in Brazil noticed a 4. paradox in the data from their national
nutrition surveys. Obesity had gone from being rare, to being the country’s dominant public health problem –
even though people were buying less oil and sugar. What theywere eating more of was industrially processed
food: biscuits, emulsified breads, confectionary and so on. The team developed a definition that distinguished
between traditional food, whole or processed, and these items, which they termed ultra processed foods,
or UPFs for short.

Africa's Greatest Freedom Symbol
Son of a chief, Nelson Mandela studied law and became one of South Africa's first black lawyers. Early
in the 1950s he was elected leader of the youth wing of the ANC (African National Congress) liberation
movement. When the country's white minority government prohibited the ANC in 1960, Mandela became
convinced that armed struggle was inevitable. Inspired by the guerrilla wars in Algeria and Cuba, he organized
a military underground movement that engaged in sabotage. In 1962 he was arrested and sentenced to life
imprisonment for high treason and conspiracy against the state.
From 1964 to 1982 he was confined to the notorious prison island Robben Island, together with several
other resistance leaders. He was then moved to prison on the mainland until his release in 1990. During his
imprisonment, Mandela became a rallying point for South Africa's oppressed, and the world's most famous
political prisoner.
Nelson Mandela shared the Peace Prize with the man who had released him, President Frederik Willem de
Klerk, because they had agreed on a peaceful transition to majority rule.

Strategy I
In Eating Mindfully, Susan Albers recommends starting with one mealtime: breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
Choose a specific location to eat, such as your table or the lunchroom at work. Sit quietly. Don't get up, and
don't answer the phone. Have all the food you intend to eat on the table in front of you before starting. To
be mindful you must give your full attention to your eating. You must focus on the process of eating and
enjoying your meal.
Strategy II
Susan Albers suggests that one way to slow down the process of eating is to challenge the way you have
always done it.
For example, try eating using a pair of chopsticks instead of your customary utensils. This will force you to
take smaller portions, eat more slowly, and look at your food more closely. Other strategies include eating
with your non-dominant hand, chewing your food 30 to 50 times per bite, or trying to make the portion of
food you've taken for the meal last 20 minutes.
Observe the sensation of picking up the food and placing it in your mouth.

Choose the correct statement about the text.
(A) Susan Alberts brings the information that nowadays adults, kids and teenagers are distracted by mobile,
screens, internet, and they are eating a lot of junk food. Susan Alberts makes some recommendations for
parents to help their kids too.
(B) The suggestion made by Susan Alberts is impossible to follow because people who lives in big cities don’t
have time to sit quietly and don’t be distracted by phones or other devices.
(C) The words “recommends” and “suggests” found in the strategy I and strategy II show that Susan Alberts
advices how eating mindfully. The strategies aren’t an obligation.
(D) The suggestion “try eating using a pair of chopsticks instead of your customary utensils” isn’t the best advice
if we consider the lifestyle of the world today.
(E) Others recommendations made by Susan Alberts emphasize the importance to be alone, far from the others
members of our family while you are eating.
