Digestion starts in the mouth

Posted on December 24, 2008. Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: , |

A very important aspect of the digestion that many people ignore is that it starts in the mouth.The digestion of carbohydrates and even fats starts in the mouth.It’s very important to chew well your food.This combined with the administration of digestive enzymes(I will have a post about them in the future)improves your digestion(reducing the work of the stomach,intestine,liver,pancreas and even of the heart) and keeps you away from many diseases.

We got to eat in the strangest places.We can make an ideea of a person’s diet a person just looking at the debris left in the keypad.We got to eat while we work,walk,talk,and drive.In this way we break the connection between the brain and the body which leads to many diseases and, finally, the modern human diseases.

Benefits of  thick chewing your food :

1.Improved digestion and prevention of problems such as bloating, constipation, stomach burns, irritable colon syndrome and even cancer.

2.Enzymes in saliva can destroy bacteria or inactivate certain toxins.Also, these enzymes can destroy hormones and antibiotics before having a chance to get in your blood.

3.Can be used as a method of reducing the stress (no chewing gum, which is basically composed only of Chemicals)

4.Maintain the health of your teeth and gums in the long term.

Another thing that you should be aware of is that if you don’t chew well foods like pasta,patatoes,rice and especially foods high in starches they will start to fermentate in your body,giving you a abdominal distension and alcohol delivered straight in your liver.
