Drink water 30 mins before and 30 mins after the meals. Some other points to keep in mind: Eat fresh, sattvic food of the best quality you can afford. Do not eat unless you feel hungry. Do not drink unless you feel thirsty. If you are hungry and you drink instead of eating, the liquid will dissolve the digestive enzymes and reduce your gastric fire. Sit, don?t stand, to eat. When eating, eat. That is, don?t read, watch TV, or be distracted by too much conversation. Focus on the food. Chew well, at least 32 times per mouthful. This enables the digestive enzymes in the mouth to do their work properly. Eat at a moderate speed. Don?t gobble your food.
