Benefits of eating together
I love eating dinner with my family and research shows it’s a great habit to get into.
Here are five reasons you should cook and eat together as often as you can.
1/ Relaxation
For some people, cooking at home can be the perfect way to de-stress after a busy day.
2/ Support
Research shows that eating as a family increases the feeling of love and keeps everyone connected and talking.
3/ Happiness
Families that eat together report a greater commitment to learning and generally have more of a positive outlook on life.
4/ Health
Research shows children who eat three or more shared meals per week are 24 per cent more likely to eat healthy foods.
5/ Weight loss
Preparing your family meals means that you can control the ingredients and portion size so your weight-loss goals aren't easily derailed.
