Keeping your digestive system healthy is much easier than you think it is, as long as you follow a few simple rules and always care about your health. There are indeed more steps to follow to defeat nasty things like the irritable bowel syndrome or some gastritis, but this one I’m going to talk about today is the easiest of them all, is costless and, the most important: you have absolutely nothing to lose by trying it!I am talking about chewing your food. Yes, that’s right! Experts say that, in order to maintain a healthy digestive system, a mouthful should be chewed 50 times – this way, saliva will mix with the perfectly chewed food and allow for both a better digestion and nutrient absorption.
This is not only good for living a healthy life, but also for helping treatment of gastritis, ulcers and irritable bowel syndrome. And, as I said, it costs you nothing to try it: just chew your food 50 times before swallowing and soon, your digestive system will be very happy. Stay healthy!

I know you are supposed to chew that much, and so I really should, but my son and I tried it a while back and there's nothing left in your mouth but mush when you've chewed that long. It's almost disgusting.
Indeed, Angie, it kind of takes most of the food's taste, but it is the healthiest thing you will get :)
Anyway, if 50 is the perfect number one should chew the food, it doesn't mean that 30 or even 25 chews are not good. Each extra movement of our jaws helps our digestive system more :)
