D & H Tips and Tricks Series Pt. 3 digestion

"Exercise aids the dyspeptic by giving the digestive organs a healthy tone.
To engage in deep study or violent exercise immediately after eating, hinders
the digestive process; for the vitality of the system, which is needed to carry
on the work of digestion, is called away to other parts.

But a short walk after a meal, with the head erect and the shoulders back,
exercising moderately, is a great benefit. The mind is diverted from self to
the beauties of nature. The less the attention is called to the stomach, the
better. If you are in constant fear that your food will hurt you, it most assuredly
will. Forget your troubles; think of something cheerful." {CTBH 101.1}

"Grease cooked in the food renders it difficult of digestion."
—Christian Temperance and Bible Hygiene, 47. {HL 95.2}

"Condiments and spices, used in the preparation of food for the table, aid
digestion in the same way that tea, coffee, and liquor are supposed to help
the laboring man to perform his task. After the immediate effects are gone,
those who use them drop as far below par as they were elevated above par
by these stimulating substances.

The system is weakened, the blood contaminated,and inflammation is the
sure result. The less frequently condiments and desserts are placed on our
tables, the better it will be for all who partake of the food."
—Unpublished Testimonies, November 5, 1896.


"The stomach, when we lie down to rest, should have its work all done, that it may
enjoy rest, as well as other portions of the body. The work of digestion should not be
carried on through any period of the sleeping hours. After the stomach, which has been
overtaxed, has performed its task, it becomes exhausted, which causes faintness.

Here many are deceived, and think that it is the want of food which produces such
feelings, and without giving the stomach time to rest, they take more food, which for
the time removes the faintness.And the more the appetite is indulged, the more will
be its clamors for gratification.

This faintness is generally the result of meat-eating, and eating, frequently, and too
much. The stomach becomes weary by being kept constantly at work, disposing of food
not the most healthful. Having no time for rest, the digestive organs become enfeebled,
hence the sense of “goneness,” and desire for frequent eating.

The remedy such require, is to eat less frequently and less liberally, and be satisfied with
plain, simple food, eating twice, or, at most, three times a day. The stomach must have
its regular periods for labor and rest, hence eating irregularly and between meals, is a most
pernicious violation of the laws of health. With regular habits, and proper food, the stomach
will gradually recover. "{2SM 415.3}
