4. Is it good to drink water
while eating? Will it reduce digestion?
Ans: There is no evidence to suggest this. Some feel that it may dilute
the digestive enzymes, but this does not occur, because the intestines produce several times more enzymes than what is actually required for digestion. Water intake may however fill the stomach and thereby give a feeling
of fullness. This is common among children.
