Guest guest Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 Although it is necessary to drink plenty of water to keep our body clean - It is said the Japanese use to drink atleast 0ne litre of water every morning in empty stomach which cures many diseases including joint pains, cleans the stomach, clears skin rashes in feet etc., The important message is that we should not drink water while taking food or within one hour of taking food.Why because if we drink water, it dilutes the digestion fluid secreted in th stomach and indigestion occurs. Another thing it stops producing saliva in our mouth which is the main source for digestion. It is always suggested to take food which has got water content in it naturally, like cooked rice has got water content in it.Then while taking food, we have to chew properly in such a way that the food in our mouth becomes mixed with our saliva.

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 Dear Bk , Your write up is nice and may be useful . Especially the point about taking one litre of water on empty stomach . At the same time , the second part that we should not drink water while eating because it will dilute the stomach acids , needs to be looked into . This is possible only if we have only limited amount of acid secreted every day . Like a machine . But then the body is not a machine in this way . It is much more intelligent than that . If you are eating something that you like , it will keep secreting more and more acids to digest the same . Does not matter how many times you think of crunching a lemon under your tongue you will salivate each time . But what does this have to do with Astrology ? Regards , Anand A. K.

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 dear reader, BK is correct. U should not take more than one glass of water during or immediately after food. Because the food which we eat lands into the stomach as chyme and over it if water is taken the chyme instead of going down the duodenum for further digestion may float in the stomach. Even fruits have to be taken either one hour prior to food or one after food. Because it takes longer time to digest food so the fruits which is taken immediately after food stays in the stomach for a longer duration which leads to fermentation and sometimes indigestion. These details may not be relevant to astrology, but if a person comes with his horoscope compalaing about his digestion the abovementioned pattern of taking food or water or fruits will help him to reduce the intensity of indigestion or stomach problem. k.gopu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
