This chapter analyzes the positive impacts of shared meals on physical, mental, and social health. The literature review included articles from the fields of nutrition, psychology, and nursing, published between 2014 and 2024, addressing the importance of commensality, mindful eating, and the challenges of adopting this habit in modern society. The results indicate that family meals promote better food choices, strengthen social bonds, and improve psychological well-being, reinforcing the need for public policies that encourage this behavior.
