What message he brought from State Sakura implement discipline known that a healthy lifestyle? Yuliana Tan (31) shared his experience to the Compass Female when meeting in Jakarta on Monday (7/26/2010).

Slender body of a woman or a man possessed of Japan, according to observations Yuliana, was not only obtained from the habit of running feet. Their diet each day plus a character known Japanese food freshness and tend to be laden raw, like sushi, is also very crucial. Of course, healthy lifestyles is still balanced with exercise.

"For five days in Japan, we rarely eat fast food. Every hour meal came, portions and menus are complete, from appetizers, main meals, until the closing. Carbohydrates are presented even before dessert, when the stomach had begun to fill. Not like a habit meal in Indonesia, where rice is presented since the beginning of eating, "said Juliana, his experiences during a visit to Japan on June 29 to July 4, 2010.

Yuli said, every meal, portions are small and run out in just a one-time gusto. For example, foods such as opening a few pieces of fish cooked with vegetables. Then the main meals such as steak or choice of rice and noodles, and cover in the form of fruit or ice cream. Patterns and good portion of this menu for the body because, when hungry, the stomach was not immediately filled with heavy food. Intestine is left to digest the food slowly in small portions, gradually until a little heavy.

"From this way, we learn to eat slowly, and blood sugar went up slowly does not directly change drastically. Carbohydrate was presented when the stomach already full, so that consumption is not too much," said the woman who claimed to have problems with this weight.

Despite getting different experiences and lifestyles in Japan (especially about diet), Yuli admitted difficult to implement it in Jakarta. How to cook and access to fresh food in Jakarta is rather difficult. In Japan, Yuli said, the snacks are cheaper, the same diet. Food always begins with small portions and gradually so safe for blood sugar and digestion.
