OVEREATING
The sage Hippocrates says that sickness is
not a lightning strike that suddenly falls on someone from the sky, but is the
result of the small mistakes and inconsistencies you make every day. Even the
day will come when these small and insignificant slips will grip your insides
once and for all as if some evil has engulfed you. This is how health is
ruined. For example, most people have a harmful habit of smoking, but they do
not even realize it at the beginning, so that this habit is endangering their
health. How much blood and lungs are affected. When the effects of smoking
begin to appear after a while, it becomes a habit and a sign for many diseases
and physical ailments.
Similarly, alcoholism, overeating and the
consumption of wrong and unbalanced diet is the result of the fact that in the
beginning the physical system tolerates these abnormalities and excesses and
when they reach such a stage after which there is no more baldness left, then
their effects are harmful and then various kinds of disorders erupt and the
person starts screaming in frustration because he has ruined his health. At
this point, he wonders if he will never get well again.
Overeating before the first meal is digested
weakens the gastrointestinal tract and has a detrimental effect on the
digestive system, resulting in indigestion. The stomach rots and produces a
foul odor. Sometimes some of this material gets into the throat, which tastes
bitter or sour. Abdominal bloating or pain, stinky air is excreted and the
person becomes sluggish, useless, irritable and grumpy. If some part of this
unhealthy food remains in the stomach, it spoils whatever is eaten. Just like
putting a little bit of yoghurt in a milk jug, the next day it tears up all the
milk.
It is not hidden from anyone but every human being knows that the root cause of every disease is indigestion and stomach upset. An ancient physician mentions that the real medicine is diet and the real disease is stomach disease. In the light of this principle, it can be said that one should eat less and the other should eat at the prescribed time. So that the stomach does not get upset by overeating and untimely eating, therefore, everyone should not eat again after a meal to maintain their health.
Some doctors say that
abdominal cramps cause loss of consciousness and disease. Plato says that the
rest of the body is in eating less, the rest of the tongue is in less talking,
the rest of the soul is in less sleep and the rest of the heart is in not
taking revenge. If it is added to this statement that the rest of the
intellect is not in delusion, In the light of these advices, a person should
eat only enough to create strength in his body for worldly work and worship,
then his health will be restored and he will not suffer from any disease.
Ibn Maasu, an ancient
physician, says that if people adapt their diet to religious principles, they
will be protected from diseases and illnesses. They will be freed from clinics
and hospitals. Medicine and grocery stores will have to be closed.
This is based on the
fact that there is no doubt that overeating can lead to many diseases, the most
dangerous of which are obesity, hypertension, stroke, diabetes and chronic
constipation. If you really want to stay healthy, then Focus on your diet and
encourage eating less and eating a balanced diet. The less you eat the lighter
and happier you will feel and the more you will impress the people around you.
Your friends and loved ones will ask you about your good health.
