7 secrets to help Indians stay healthy and young for a long time

Indians not only take care of their health on the outside, but also focus on finding out the core problems inside. They are interested in the stomach and digestive system as they are associated with many diseases and aging.

1. Don't drink a lot of water after eating

Indians do not have the habit of drinking water right before and after a meal. Drinking water before eating will dilute the gastric juice, making digestion difficult. If taken right after eating, the food in the stomach will be disturbed. Digestion is not going smoothly will make your skin worse, even cause obesity. Experts recommend that we drink water 30 minutes before and after eating. 

2. Five flavors should be in the diet 

Indians often design a balanced meal with 5 flavors including sweet, salty, sour, bitter and pungent to improve the body's immunity.

3. Eat a spoonful of ghee every day

Toxins are the cause of allergic phenomena. Indians eat a spoonful of ghee (made from cow's milk, buffalo milk or sheep's milk) every day to neutralize most of the toxins in the body. 

Ghee is a type of butter that contains more fat than regular butter and is solid (because of the separation of water and milk). It has its roots in ancient Indian cuisine and Ayurvedic medicine (the traditional system of Hindu medicine that originated in the Indian subcontinent). 

4. Eat ginger, cumin and black pepper

According to Ayurvedic medicine, spices with warm/hot properties have the ability to improve digestion. In addition, they also help eliminate allergic phenomena by improving your immune system. You can add ginger to tea and drink it every day to improve health.

5. Avoid cold food

Indian doctors advise us to avoid eating rancid, cold and processed foods. They are difficult to digest and can lead to the formation of toxins.

6. Avoid eating curd at night

Curd (curd) is a dish made from cow's milk in Indian cuisine. Curd is fermented milk but does not taste like regular yogurt, but has a slightly pale taste, too sour, lacking sweetness, so it is sometimes mistaken for spoiled yogurt. 

People with acidic body, acid reflux disease or indigestion should not eat yogurt or curd at night. These foods will cause constipation while the digestive system is getting ready for bed. You can eat them during the day.

7. Wake up 2 hours before sunrise

According to Indian doctors, the simplest way to lead a healthy life is to arrange your daily routine according to a suitable schedule. You should wake up 2 hours before sunrise, during the day you should eat right and sleep at the same time.
