| "Remember to chew your food at least 25 times before swallowing if you wish to become a member of 'Chewdaism!' ;D)" |
I was recently watching on television the "View "and saw an interview with author A.J. Jacobs who recently penned a book called, " Drop dead Healthy." Jacobs lost twenty lbs by doing things like literally running errands, taking the stairs, parking far away at mall and shopping centers, and changing his diet to eating no white food, except broccoli.
The main ingredient he credits to a new movement called Chewdaism, not to be confused with Judaism. Chewdaism is where you chew your food numerous times until you swallow.
WE are a country of under-chewers which has health implications. If we started using our molars by chewing more before swallowing it would not only improve our digestion but our waistlines. A recent study financed by the American journal of Nutrition found that when people chew almonds at least 25 times they absorbed more unsaturated fat (the good kind of fat) than those who chewed 10 times or less.
Funny thing is people always tell me I don't look Chewish, none the less I am a full fledged convert!
Unlike Judaism, Chewdaism requires no yearly membership dues, attending services, circumcision or tax deductible donations.
Chewdaism is free and has my vote as another great health and spiritual alternative!
