Don’t eat too much. The ancients asks us not to waste food but if eating finish all the food in our bowl causes us to have medical issues, we waste more money, energy, time etc to recover from it. We need to use wisdom to take only what we can reasonably finish and be consistent day to day. Moderation in food is also moderation in taking/receiving food.

Q8 Why don’t you allow discussion of Personal practice, personal problems or diet and medical issues?

A : This forum is not a support group. Moderators cannot ensure that your personal revelations will be well received by the community. It is not possible to render meaningful assistance on such issues through the modality of an anonymous Internet forum! If it is really necessary to discuss such topics, it should be done with reference to generalities, such as would be found in a book or in a Dhamma talk. Alternatively, those interested in such conversation can use the Personal Message (PM) feature to discuss among themselves.

The internet should not be anyone’s prime source of information or advice. Apparently simple life hacks such as diet, exercise and meditation can often produce adverse effects, and sometimes even be life-threatening. Users should always contact their own doctors, dietitians, therapists and spiritual advisors before embarking on any course of action which could potentially be hazardous to their physical or mental health.

This is what King Pasenadi did…

SN3.13
Then, knowing that King Pasenadi was huffing and puffing after eating, on that occasion the Buddha recited this verse:

“When a man is always mindful,
knowing moderation in eating,
his discomfort fades,
and he ages slowly, taking care of his life.”

Now at that time the brahmin student Sudassana was standing behind the king.
Then King Pasenadi addressed him,
“Please, dear Sudassana, memorize this verse in the Buddha’s presence and recite it to me whenever I am presented with a meal.
I’ll set up a regular daily allowance of a hundred dollars for you.”

But we are so much richer than Pasenadi… Siri/Alexa/Google can be ordered to recite the verse for us for free at every mealtime!
