Don’t bite off more than you can chew — literally. When you don’t take time to properly chew your food, you rely on your stomach acids to break down the parts of food. If you chew your food completely, stomach acids will not have to work so hard on your recently digested food and instead can concentrate on previous foods, even fats.
