“When are toe nails, fingernails, teeth, skin, clothes, etc., are visibly dirty and/or smell we have a natural tendency to want to clean them for hygiene and so that we are not embarrassed while out and about  in our daily lives.  Just think, if we were able to visibly see our internal organs and display them to the world.  Would keeping them clean and vibrantly healthy be just as important?  I am sure it would be.”  - Nancy Gurney

Also, Chew Your Food Slowly, here are just some of the benefits/side affects of food chewing:

So what are some benefits to chewing your food thoroughly?

1. Aids in the proper transport of nutrients in your body.
2. Helps start the important digestive process which is important to being healthy.
3. You are more than likely to not eat as much by eating thoroughly. When you are eating slower, your brain can tell you that you are full, causing you to eat less.
4. Helps to prevent the heavy feeling that sometimes follows a meal and it also will help you lose body fat since you are not eating as much.

 

What are some of the side effects of not chewing thoroughly?

1. Poorly digested food means poor absorption of the vitamins and nutrients that the foods you are eating provide.
2. Eating rapidly and swallowing large mouthfuls contributes to the reflux which can damage the lining of the throat and esophagus. A large number of Americans experience reflux or heartburn at least once a month, to weekly to daily.
3.  Other side effects include flatulence, indigestion, heartburn, gas, IBS, and other discomforts. Chewing each bit thoroughly allows less air to enter in which decreases gas and burping. With an increasing number of individuals with IBS, constipation, abdominal spasms and bloating, chewing food could possibly prevent a number if these daily discomforts.

 

For people who have trouble chewing foods, it may be helpful to cut food into small pieces and to allow extra time to chew food at a comfortable, unhurried pace. Another helpful hint would be to put your fork down on your plate after each bite. For people who just do not have the time to eat and chew each bite, a well-balanced meal replacement shake is a good alternative. Again, chewing thoroughly takes some time to get used to and will be strange at first. Making a conscious effort to start benefiting from chewing will be a start. A lot of people say chew a set number of times before swallowing your foods. Do not worry about counting how many bits you take but just make sure each bit is liquid before you swallow. If you understand the benefits associated with chewing thoroughly, you will start today.
