Guest guest Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 Dear ALL, What all discussed here about digestion is good; but it is not new to Indians as AYURVEDA speaks of concept of USHAH. PAANA.(filling a small copper pot with cold water at night with/without medicines and drinking it immediately after waking up in the morning). Always the emphasis is on what OTHERS do and copy that - that has been the recent trend ; well at least better late than never! A small info-bit: Japanese do not drink water - at least in the empty stomach - that too ONE LITRE!?-never! Do not call me mad, for I am living amidst them and know the truth. A typical Japanese gets up and immediately eats in a hurry, dresses up and hangs on to metro! If there is any drink in between, that is black coffee/Japanese Tea/Green Tea/very rarely milk based drinks --- ALL WITHOUT SUGAR. Water -- hmmmm - at my Osaka-office a lady asked me - HA? DO YOU DRINK WATER? If at all, Japanese drink water, it is mineral water bottled cleanly and labelled with hundreds of yens! So there is no USHAH.PAANA business! yours humbly KAD , K Gopu <kgopu_24 wrote: > > dear reader, > BK is correct. U should not take more than one glass > of water during or immediately after food.

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 HAH! Looks like globallization is finally taking over the modern world. And someone actually said, just a few decades ago, "East and West, never shall the twain meet!". Well maybe they never did meet and ONE just took over the other. India has seen that personally and upclose, first from the middle and then from the west and now ...? I think it is a good trend, even if some in the 7 billion strong world and more in some clustered (or shall we say cloistered?) groups would maintain otherwise!

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Dear KAD ji, The issue is not about somebody taking water in the morning or not.In tropical climates water requirement and intake is undoubtedly more. Also in the process of civilisations ,advent technology has great relevance.In our country we still believe in hard work and following the practices of elder generations. Drinking plent of water may be a personal choice.it's impact on general health can not be ignored. Early morning drinking water with empaty stomache is really good and helps to mainatian balance and in the removal of toxins in the body. For whom it does not suit no problem.Somebody very xautious of quality water may opt for mineral water.otherwise normal drinking water in the place of stay/residence is not bad.so one can consume with confidence. A developed country like japan has it's own ways of life influenced by world wars.It has all features to take over the west and make true east meets west in one or other form. For other countires there is long way even to think of green tea evry day. krishnan crystal pages <rrgb wrote: HAH! Looks like globallization is finally taking over the modern world.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2006 Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 Dear Krishnan, I am not suggesting that one should drink Green Tea every morning! Perhaps you did not get the message of the post; I just wanted to say: 1.Ushah.Paana is good for health 2.It is mentioned in Ayurveda and is practised since long years. 3.Do not throw away all the ancient knowledge like 'STALE GOODS'. 4.Do not copy from other countries just because THEY do it. 5.If you copy good things from others and realise that it was there in your own lineage and appreciate it, GOOD! hope it is clear now yours KAD , vattem krishnan <bursar_99 wrote: > > Dear KAD ji, > The issue is not about somebody taking water in the morning or not.In tropical climates water requirement and intake is undoubtedly more. > Also in the process of civilisations ,advent technology has great relevance.In our country we still believe in hard work and following the practices of elder generations. > Drinking plent of water may be a personal choice.it's impact on general health can not be ignored. > Early morning drinking water with empaty stomache is really good and helps to mainatian balance and in the removal of toxins in the body. > For whom it does not suit no problem.Somebody very xautious of quality water may opt for mineral water.otherwise normal drinking water in the place of stay/residence is not bad.so one can consume with confidence. > A developed country like japan has it's own ways of life influenced by world wars.It has all features to take over the west and make true east meets west in one or other form. > For other countires there is long way even to think of green tea evry day. > krishnan > > crystal pages <rrgb wrote: > HAH!
