Digestion begins in the Mouth!

We live in a fast paced society, we want instant gratification, and there is no exception when it comes to eating. With the rise of fast food restaurants and microwavable meals, we get our food fast and eat it even faster. Digestion begins in the mouth. If we aren't chewing our food properly then we aren't getting the maximum nutritional value from our meals! By slowing down and chewing properly not only will we get the most from what we're eating, we'll also feel full faster, eat less, and not feel tired or bloated afterwards.
