I've tried to refrain from snacking and usually restrict my eating to two (large) meals per day. I feel like it has had a positive impact toward my health overall. One unintended benefit has been my teeth - I didn't realize that one of the main reasons dental problems occur is due to the change in natural oral pH levels. People who snack or drink (things apart from water) all day will never give their mouth time to reacclimate to its natural pH level. Per my dentist: if you're gonna eat an enormous bag of candy, it's way better to just down it all in one sitting rather than snack on it all day.

My teeth and gums are the healthiest they've ever been, so I'm gonna try to maintain this routine for as long as I can.
