This is a very important rule, and must be strictly adhered to. It refers to both the water and the tea, coffee and other beverages (by the way, the milk - is food, not a drink, but too drunk separately). Animals, for example, do not drink with meals, and that instinct is a good rule.Water leaves the stomach within 10 minutes after ingestion, taking with them a diluted, and as a result, impaired gastric juice. This seriously hampers digestion.
Water during meal leads to poor chewing food. Instead of well-chewed and moistened with saliva food, drink a person learns to swallow her hydrated and poluprozhevannoy. This habit should be eliminated. On the need to chew food and speak Pythagoras Hufeland, Kant, and Fletcher, Shelton and Ozawa.
The latter, for example, recommended that healthy people chew your food 50 times, the patient - 100 times cultivator - 150 times. But again, do not count the number of "chewy", and you will gradually begin to resemble the mentally retarded. But this does not change the rules: chew for a long time and thoroughly. The most important thing is not the process and the result. Chew, except as the food does not turn into a liquid homogeneous mass.
Processing in the starch and sugar is terminated, mostly in the oral cavity. This reduces the load on other parts of the digestive tract. Savor, enjoy the food, chew small portions and do not wash down. This will provide her the best treatment.
Drinking water is best for 10-15 minutes before meals or at 30 minutes after receiving the fruit, two hours after meals and starch at 4 hours after the protein.
Cold drinks, drinks with a meal break in the action of enzymes that have to wait until the temperature of the stomach does not rise to normal before you start to apply. Cold drinks, getting into the stomach, it hurt. There is a great thirst.
As for hot drinks. They weaken and deprive them of energy stomach. Disrupted tissue tone of the stomach, weakens the ability of mechanical impact on the food.
And the high and low temperature prevents the secretion of digestive juices. Optimum temperature beverages must meet the normal body temperature or at least not greater than 40 degrees.
