Even Dr. Pepper Knows, Slower is Better - Slower is Better

We live in a society now that is based on who can get information the fastest and who can use the information the fastest. Everything we do is quick, fast, and expedient. We want to drive fast, have a fast Internet connection, get the girl faster, succeed at a young age, do everything faster than everyone else. We have simply just lost the art of moving slowly.

The fact is, healthier people take more time eating their meals than unhealthy people. The reason? They eat slower to determine when they are full easier.

I've gone through three and a half years of college and I know that cramming for a test is not the best way to get the best grade. What is the best way?
