The Listenary

Experiment with these so you will know when not to eat.

Not before four hours have passed since your last meal, not even a morsel. (Requires digestion to begin all over again and partially digested food to stagnate.)

Not within one hour of retiring. (Requires digestion processes when the body is set for other duties.)

Not unless you want to eat. (The sense of hunger and desire prepare the body for the task of digestion.)

Not under stress and tension or with intense and upsetting conversation. (Stress shuts down digestion; a fast can fortify the body for dealing with stress.)
