Unless you want to throw it over somebody for dramatic effect, a glass of water (or any other drinking fluid) has no place at a meal table.

Our advice is to try not to drink during meals. Your digestive system cleverly takes all the water it requires from the food you consume.

So drinking during meals will only disrupt and complicate the natural digestive process, flooding your digestive enzymes.

Keep it simple – for best results have a drink either half-an-hour before a meal or one hour after.
