Aphorisms, proverbs and sayings about healthy eating
We have collected for you the best examples of folk wisdom - proverbs, sayings and aphorisms about the benefits of healthy eating. They will help you get ready to lose weight and once again remind you that people who eat right remain healthy and live longer.
“I eat to live, but some live to eat,” are the words of the ancient Greek philosopher Socrates. Have you ever thought about the meaning of a statement? Nutrition is an important part of life, but it is not the meaning of existence.
Quote about proper nutrition and a healthy lifestyle. Quotes about health
The success of our lives depends on the state of our health. Nowadays it is becoming very fashionable to lead a healthy lifestyle. For those of you who still doubt the benefits of a healthy lifestyle, I present some wonderful quotes about health. Let famous, successful and wise people try to convince those who have doubts and who have not yet begun to lead a healthy lifestyle. So, read quotes about health, as well as about a healthy lifestyle:
“The only beauty I know is health.” (Heinrich Heine)
“Our nutrients must be medicines, and our medicines must be foods.” (Hippocrates)
“Only the frail and weak die; the healthy and strong always emerge victorious in the struggle for existence.” (Charles Darwin)
“Just as there is a disease of the body, there is also a disease of the lifestyle.” (Democritus of Abdera)
“It is human nature to practice moderation, not only for the sake of future health, but also for present well-being.”
Sayings about the benefits of healthy eating
Proverbs and sayings are expressions honed over centuries. Each of them went through a series of metamorphoses, reborn into a brief but apt truth. Proverbs are the quintessence of folk life wisdom and experience. The meanings of sayings and proverbs differ. Proverbs carry a certain wisdom, and sayings are more often used “for the sake of saying something.”
The meaning of this proverb speaks about the basic principle of healthy eating - do not overeat. When you eat too much, any sweet or just your favorite treat will lose its charm.
The first part of the proverb is more relevant than ever in our pace of life. Often we don't pay enough attention to breakfast. There can be many reasons for this: lack of time, in the morning you just don’t want to eat, and so on.
Breakfast is the main source of strength and energy for the whole day, so you should never neglect a light morning meal.
In contrast to breakfast, it is not recommended to eat a lot at dinner. The body, digesting food in your sleep, does not rest, which means you will wake up exhausted and not getting enough sleep. It is best to limit the amount of food at dinner to a minimum.
Scientists have proven that the more thoroughly you chew your food, the more benefits it brings. It seems incredible, but in fact it is true. Thoroughly chewed food is easier to digest, and the body receives the maximum amount of nutrients.
A stomach overfilled with large pieces of food puts pressure on the diaphragm, which negatively affects the heart.
The meaning of the saying speaks about the dangers of overeating (literally - don’t eat everything you see).
The meaning of this proverb is proper cooking. Any product, even if you haven’t eaten it because you don’t like the taste or smell, will turn out to be tasty and healthy if prepared correctly.
Don't you like oatmeal, a healthy dish for your stomach? Try oatmeal with fruits or nuts, and your childhood unloved porridge will take on a new taste.
Food that is cooked, cooled and then reheated loses its taste and most of its nutritional and beneficial properties. Prepare the amount of food for one meal. It is better to spend a little more time preparing the dish, but always eat the food fresh and healthy.
During sleep, the body needs rest. If you eat too much before going to bed, then instead of resting, your stomach continues to work. This has a negative impact on your overall well-being in the morning.
The meaning of this famous proverb should be taken literally. Apples are a natural source of iron and a complex of vitamins that are easily absorbed by the body. In addition, apples help digestion and reduce the amount of cholesterol in the blood.
What proverbs and aphorisms teach us

Jokes about proper nutrition. Funny jokes about food and products - the funniest jokes about food
What's funny about food? In the most ordinary food that we consume every day. Don't believe that food can be described humorously? Then read funny jokes about food and products and you will see how funny jokes about food can be. Naturally, in jokes about food and products, food does not play the main role. No, she just appears in dialogue between several gag characters.
Jokes about food
In general, jokes about food are somewhat unique and not entirely ordinary. Take food demotivators as an example. They show some products and a funny inscription on a black background. Funny? Not always. Food jokes, on the other hand, are full of descriptive elements of food that ultimately make you smile. Sometimes food jokes don't mention food at all, but the whole joke is built around eating it, and the joke is in the cutlery or eating habits.
Jokes about food
Some jokes about food even have philosophical overtones. And these jokes cannot be classified as funny aphorisms about food, since they contain dialogues. What could be more disgusting than biting into an apple and seeing a worm? Bite into an apple and see half a worm. And the jokes about food are funny, and some philosophical overtones are visible. True, such jokes about food are very rare, despite the amazing and funny mixture of genres.
Jokes about products
About half of the jokes about food are focused on the products themselves and the process of preparing them. Anecdotes about products are short, and they contain exceptionally subtle humor. The joke where the wife told her husband to watch when cooking dumplings so that they did not stick together, and the husband cooked them one at a time, will not seem funny to everyone. However, if you imagine the actual situation of cooking dumplings, these funny food jokes will really seem funny.
Proverbs and sayings about healthy eating: making a menu
Whatever one may say, the basic rule on which dietetics is based is healthy, rich in vitamins and minerals, nutritious and at the same time easily digestible foods. Including fast food, caffeinated products, and even more so meat or fish that comes to the table through violence, cruelty and murder in your diet means fundamentally violating the norms of a healthy lifestyle, moral principles and foundations of a humane, harmonious spiritual personality. In addition, a variety of fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts, legumes and other plant crops can fully provide a person with everything necessary for a full life, and sayings clearly confirm this.
Vegetables on the table – health in the home
The vegetable menu is perhaps the healthiest thing that Mother Nature can offer us. Their composition is rich in plant fiber, life-giving moisture, easy-to-digest nutrients, minerals, amino acids and vitamins. They are good both on their own and as ingredients for delicious dishes: remember what the spring-summer aroma of a cucumber salad, the spicy taste of a vegetable stew or an autumn mix with carrots and cabbage is worth? How about light Lenten borscht, ratatouille or zucchini jam for dessert? Fresh or cooked vegetables can replace the first, second and third courses, and our ancestors knew about this a long time ago. And numerous proverbs about the benefits of vegetables are clear confirmation of this:
Proverbs about healthy eating could not ignore the benefits of fruits and berries. Juicy, ripe and incredibly tasty fruits are an irreplaceable source of vitamins and plant fiber. If you supplement your diet with apples, you can forget about weakness and anemia, bananas will help improve digestion, citrus fruits will help replenish vitamin C deficiency, pears will help relieve diarrhea, pomegranates will increase hemoglobin... In short, the right fruits and berries can cure ailments and improve your work body. True, it is worth paying attention only to seasonal fruits, since when buying them in supermarkets it is impossible to ensure the absence of pesticides. This rule also applies to vegetables: harvest collected from your own garden or purchased from trusted places will be much healthier than imported ones.
And in order not to doubt the benefits of fruits and berries, read what the proverbs say about this:
Proverbs about the rules of healthy eating from cereals
What could be healthier for the stomach than porridge? Light oatmeal is the best breakfast, nutritious buckwheat, rich in iron and minerals, is an ideal second course for lunch, and quickly digestible rice is an excellent dinner. However, although these are the most popular, they are far from the only porridges: those who prefer a cereal menu can change the types of dishes at least every day. How much can you cook from cereals? Buckwheat cutlets, rice meatballs, oatmeal bars with dried fruits, corn cookies... All these dishes will not only be healthy, but also incredibly tasty. One has only to read the proverbs about the rules of healthy eating regarding cereals - and everything will immediately fall into place:
Proverbs about healthy eating: creating the right regime
No matter how trivial it may sound, it is not only the quality of nutrition that is important, but also its regularity. Skipping breakfast so as not to be late for work, neglecting lunch due to heavy workload during the work day, and eating in the evening, trying to compensate for the feeling of hunger that haunted you during the day, is far from the best idea. At night, the body should rest, including the digestive tract. Therefore, dinner should be light and not too late, so that all the food eaten has time to be fully absorbed before going to bed. But breakfast must be nutritious - it is necessary for the metabolism to wake up, and the nutrients eaten provide energy at least until lunch. Read what the proverbs say about this:
Proverbs about the dangers of overeating
Any excess cannot go unnoticed, and excessive overeating is no exception. The golden rule of dietetics is based on the fact that “you need to leave the table with a slight feeling of hunger”
– then digestion will be normal, excess weight will be avoided, and your general well-being will always be cheerful and active. However, you should not confuse a slight feeling of hunger and malnutrition: if the first is a physiological stage of satiety (after all, the feeling of fullness comes approximately 20-30 minutes after a meal), then the second is a restriction in essential nutrients, which cannot be called correct.
Our ancestors also knew about this - it’s not for nothing that people have so many sayings about the dangers of gluttony:
If you collect all the proverbs and sayings about healthy eating
together, you can publish a whole series of volumes of folk wisdom - this bottomless well of useful advice obviously won’t fit into one book. And, if you look at it, all modern dietetics is built on the same principles that are propagated in proverbs: eat healthy foods, use the right methods of cooking, don’t overeat, but don’t starve, don’t turn food into the meaning of life - and you can maintain your health, youth and love of life for many years.

Quotes from great people about proper nutrition. Nutrition rules: quotes from famous people
Today we decided to make a selection of statements by famous personalities about food and nutrition rules. But whether to follow their advice or not is everyone’s personal choice.
Let's start with quotes from the famous ancient Greek healer and doctor - Hippocrates. It is not for nothing that he went down in history as the “father of medicine.” Of course, among his statements about doctors and medicine, there were smart thoughts about healthy eating.
- Let your food become medicine.
- Hunger weakens, weakens and kills a person. Heavy food destroys the human body. Therefore, you need to look for the middle.
- If you are unable to change your lifestyle, then no one and nothing will help you.
- Most diseases come from what we put inside ourselves. Tell me what you eat and I will tell you what makes you sick.
The Irish philosopher, writer, poet, and famous esthete Oscar Wilde was also a real gourmet, so his quotes about food are optimistic and set the mood for a good lunch.
- After a good dinner, you can forgive anyone, even your relatives.
- When I have big troubles in my life, I deny myself literally everything except delicious food and good drinks.
It seems that Charles Bukowski, who himself did not have a healthy lifestyle, also spoke out: “Food is good for the nerves and state of mind. Courage comes from the belly, and everything else comes from despair.”
But the Polish composer Stefan Kiselevsky once said that “Thanks to the refrigerator, we can now eat stale food.” How can you disagree? And what could be healthier than fresh food?
There have always been many vegetarians among famous personalities, so you can find many quotes about the benefits of giving up meat; let’s focus on a few.
Adam Smith, a Scottish economist, ethical philosopher, one of the founders of modern economic theory, said this: “It is very doubtful that we need the meat of killed animals to maintain life. Vegetables and grains, milk, cheese, butter give us complete, plentiful, nutritious, high-calorie food.”
“As enlightenment and population increase, people move from eating people to eating animals, from eating animals to eating grains and roots, and from this way of eating to the most natural: eating fruits” - Leo Tolstoy as proof that vegetarianism is not "something Western"
But nutritionist Harvey Diamond put it wittily: “Give a child an apple and a rabbit, and if he eats the rabbit and plays with the apple, I’ll give you a new car.”
We can’t ignore the quote from Clifton Fadiman, a famous American writer: “Cheese can be disappointing. It can be boring, it can be primitive, it can be too sophisticated. However, cheese still remains milk’s leap into immortality.” We completely agree here!
The English writer Joanne Harris also spoke interestingly about food: “Food is a kind of universal passport. No matter what challenges arise in terms of language, cultural differences or geographical difficulties, food can overcome everything.”
And we want to finish this collection of smart thoughts with the words of Claude Tillier, a French writer and journalist: “Food is a need for the stomach, drinking is a need for the soul.”
