Hints for
oak Stomachs
Eat slowly, masticating the food, thoroughly, even more, if
possible, than is required in health. The more time the food
spends in the inouth, the less it will spend in the stoma.
Avoid drinkiug at meals in general,
dyspeptic stomachs manage dry fcod
better thau that containiug much
fluid. Eat neither very hot nor cold
food. The best temperature is that
of the body. Be careful to avoid
excess in eating. Eat no more than
the wants of the system require.
Stieuetitues less thau is really needed
must be taken -when ;digestion is very
weak. Streugth depends not ou what
is eateo, but on what is digeeted.
Never take idalent exercise of any
sort, either mental or physical, either
just before Or just after a Intel.
Never, eat more than three times a
day, and make the inet meal very
light. For ivao' 1 eeptics, two
meals are better than more. Never
eat a morsel of any sort between
meele. Never eat when very tired,
whether exhausted front rdental or
physical labor. Never eat when tile
mind is worried or the temper ruffled,
if you vut possibly avoid it. Rat only
food that is easy of digestion, avoid.
