The act of eating is life-giving. The process of eating is important for development of consciousness as well as our physical health.

First of all, sit down to ear. Do not stand, walk or drive through the meal. Enjoy the meal for good digestion. Do not talk much to someone or on the phone, read or watch television while eating. These activities take away the enjoyment of eating and digestion. Slow eating habits also create indigestion. These additional activities may result in weak stimulation of Pachak Agni and hence forth creates fatigue after eating.

Second and most important, eat only one third of your stomach need. Wheit is time for meal, one should fill the stomach with one third water, one third food and one third must be kept empty for proper movements and absorption of food.

In diabetic conditions, pregnancy, hypertension and obesity, one should take smaller meals in every four hours. This brings better Pachak Agni into action and helps in proper nutrient absorption.

And of course, last but not the least, eat healthy food. Boiled, baked and stir fried food is better than deep fried, overcooked and broiled food. Marinated salads, sprouts, yoghurt and variety of drinks at the time of food can bring in great salivatary fluids, which will help digest the food and further down for absorption as well.

We also had question as to whether to drink water in between the meal. There are quite a few different opinions in this matter. However, you can take good amount fo water before meal, in between the meal, but must avoid water immediately after the meal. One should not take water for one to two hours after the meal.  This calms the Pachak agni for a long time and having such habit creates bulging of stomach.
