Heart Burn? Here the cause....

Recently, I listen to a radio program that explain our digestion process. Before this, I attended Anthony Robbins seminar and there is a part of the program that say we spend 80% of our energy to digest food if we follow our regular diet. This explains why most of us are so sleepy or tire after our lunch or dinner. At first, I don't quite understand the digestion process, after the doctor explanation, everything seems clear.

Let's use "Chicken Rice" for example. Our favorite dishes for lunch or dinner. For me, I feel extremely tired and sleepy after eating chicken rice. The real cause behind is that we cannot eat rice and meat together as this will load up our digestion process.

This is due to the science of digestion. To digest the rice, it takes place in our mouth and intestine, and it required a alkaline environment. However, to digest the meat (high complex protein food) it take place in our stomach, and require high acid to break down the complex protein structure.

Here the catch, when we eat rice and meat together, and chew it all mix up together, first our mouth saliva will start to digest the rice (carbohydrate food) and make the mixture of food to become alkaline in order to digest the rice component. When the mixture arrive our stomach, it will require lots of acid to digest the meat component since the mixture is in alkaline environment. This process to make the mixture acidic will burn our body energy a lot since it need twice or more acid to transform the mixture from alkaline to acidic.

It will take more than 3 times the energy and time to digest the meat in the mixture compare to just meat alone. When the meat is digested, the rice component will start to turn bad and smelly and become toxic to our body.

Then it come to the intestine. Intestine again has to make extra effort turn the mixture into alkaline condition to break down the rice component which has already turn bad and get it out of our body.

Finally, all we get is the minor nutritions but whole lot of extra works to clear the toxic out of our body. That's the price we pay for the delicious chicken rice... ;)

The Doctor suggest that, if possible we do not need the protein from the meat since that consider complex protein. And, if really wanted to eat meat, please do not mixed with carbonhydrate food like rice, mee, or mee hon. Just meat alone and some vegetables will be very kind to our body.

As for protein requirement, vegetable has enough protein for our daily needs since we don't need much of protein.

So, having heart burn? Stop eating meat, especially do not mixed with bread, rice , or mee.... don't believe me, try it out !!! You'll definitely feel the difference. Stop poisoning your body, as you need to energy to do something more meaningful.....;)
