Mindful eating involves paying attention to all aspects of your food and the eating process. Eating slowly, focusing on your food, noticing its appearance, smell, and texture, and consciously selecting each bite can prevent common digestive issues like indigestion, bloating, and gas. Chewing your food thoroughly aids digestion by breaking it down for easier absorption. Chewing also produces saliva, which helps with the initial digestion of carbohydrates and fats. By practicing mindful eating and chewing, you can improve your digestive health.
