With the stomach and other digestive organs in a state of perfect health, we are fully aware of its existence, unless the feeling of hunger calls attention to the fact that food is necessary, or warns of satiety us that eating enough or too much. Perfect digestion can be maintained only through strict adherence to the rules relating to health habits.
quote about the health of the gastro-intestinal problems, we have some paragraphs from Dr. Kellogg's work on the physiology, which provided a brief summary of the key to this:
"The hygiene of digestion has the quality and quantity of food consumed in eating to do.
If the food you eat too fast, it will not be distributed properly, and if swallowed in large pieces, digestive juices can not act immediately. With sufficient chewing is a lack of saliva quantity and thus the strength is not digested properly and the stomach will not issue a sufficient amount of gastric juice. That's not good to eat only soft foods or liquids, because we swallow without chewing properly. Most food drives that require chewing completely, must be eaten at each meal.
Free drinks for hazardous food because not only encourages early feeding, but dilutes the gastric juice, whereby its activity. Food should be chewed until sufficiently moistened saliva, thus they are swallowed. If a large amount of fluid taken into the stomach, the digestive fluid begins only much has taken. If cold foods or drinks with meals, such as ice, water, milk or iced tea cooled made, the stomach is chilled, and caused long delays in the process of digestion.
