Hello practo User Don't drink water immediately after having food. You need to wait atleast for 30 mins . If you'll take water immediately after food it will slower down the digestion process and this is not good for the body Thankyou Dt.Bhumi Shah

Hello !! Drinking water immediately after food dilutes the gastric juices and slows the process of digestion. Hence it is advised not to drink water immediately after food

Drink water before ten minutes of every meal . You will feel not thirsty again . With food n after food it’s not healthy as it washes all your nutrients that should be absorbed in the gut n will cause bloating too . Chat directly with all your other queries fr better guidance n results
