Healthy Drinking & Digestion

Video Transcript

Hi there! Well, you've got your healthful foods, nice and nutritious healthy tips from your shopping. Now I have some more digestion tips. Here's another digestion tip. Actually, it has to do with your drinks with your meal. So of course, here's my hot dog. I know, it's just a hot dog. But you know what? It's actually free-range meat, and that's why I told you it has more omega-3s and the healthy fats and so much more beneficial to you. And of course, I have the organic ketchup on top of there. So there's my lunch. But you know what? I'm not going to wash it down with a bunch--a big glass of water. If I filled up off this, I wouldn't be able to digest that food, and then I wouldn't even be able to absorb the nutrients. So basically, you want to have like, that much, which if you kind of look at it, it's not exactly the whole thing. But, this is about 4 ounces of liquid. And what you want to do, is only have that much with your meal. It can be in tea form, or it can be in your coffee form, so, and that's fine. But if you have more than the 4 to 6 ounces, it's going to end up washing and diluting your digestive juices. So all that healthy food that you actually bought and made, it's not going to be absorbed. So make sure you drink up. And make sure it's in something very small, and warm is actually even good, like tea or coffee. It actually helps with digestion. It keeps it warm and the digestion, your digestion loves warmth and the warmth is going to help the digestion. And the small amount of liquid is even better for. Hey, you know what? If you want this big old glass of water, or the big old glass of milk, or whatever, or your beer, you can have that about 20 or 30 minutes afterwards and you're good to go.
