According to Osho, saliva—activated by slow, thorough chewing—begins digestion in the mouth so that some of the stomach’s work is already done. The more completely food is chewed and mixed with saliva, the less strain on the stomach, preventing post-meal drowsiness and freeing energy for the brain, supporting clarity, vitality, and overall development.
Chew well so your spit starts digesting food, easing your belly and giving more energy to your head.
