According to The Journal of Mental
and Nervous Diseases. slow eating is
~ bad as fast eating. "The important
point is not that we eat slowly or fast,
but that when we do eat we chew with
energy. OF course where the haste is
due to some mental anxiety this may
injuriously inhibit the secretions. Slow
eating begets a habit of simply num-
bling the food without really masticat
ing it, while the hurried eater is in.

mastication. Hence hurried eating is
bad, but rapid mastication is advan-
sageous. 1t concentrates our energies
on the act in question, and hence more
thoroughly acoomplishes it. Moreover,
