Not many people understands that by skipping one of the usual 3 MAIN meals a day for a normal human, we also indirectly shorten the gap of 2 shares of fruits and vegetable + 1 others. That has turn out to be a more healthier choice for many too.

Then again, as mention in my below quote, having 2 main meals doesnt means its solely just 2 main meals. In between can still have some small snacking. Just make sure to stick to a more healthier choice of snacks, eg organic fruits, peanuts etc.

The types of people know to do that were monks, priests or clerics from old time temples ages ago. Those who follow such health preserving methods were very minimum.
...and simply just avoid too much of high calories stuffs like fried chicken,potato chips etc. Not that those who are going through Health Preserving aka 养生 schedule should totally avoid ALL unhealthy food but its more of a need to keep it under control and/or to strike a balance in one's body. What is my balance then...and the answer only i know. Just like i wouldnt know whats your balance. Everyone's different.

To me, there is no such thing as unhealthy food (that includes fast food,potato chip tit-bits etc). Just unhealthy habits,and lacking self-control that makes my body goes off-balance, resulting in being lesser healthy.

The old farmer's saying during olden days were, “戌时不贪食,子时莫恋色,卯时切喝酒” meaning , dont crave for food after 7pm to 9pm timing (戌时), dont crave for sex-related stuffs after 11pm to 1am timing (子时) and no alcoholic stuffs after the 5am to 7am timing (卯时). Of course, those were the old farmer's life...hehehe...cannot really apply to modern day city life today.

Which is why i say, its mainly suitable for me to work towards on in Batam after i am away from Singapore's city life.
