Natural Mealtimes
Ayurveda, the Science of Life, declared thousands of years ago that to maintain physical and emotional well-being, the body must be fed according to a natural time schedule. Like most other functions in the body, the digestive process is controlled by circadian rhythms. The secretions of bile and other digestive juices peak at midday and are at their lowest during the night. For this reason, it is best to eat the largest meal of the day at around midday and take relatively light meals at breakfast and dinner times. This enables the body to digest the ingested food efficiently and absorb the appropriate amount of nutrients necessary for the maintenance of all bodily functions. To avoid interfering with the secretion of digestive juices at lunchtime, it is ideal to eat breakfast no later than 8 a.m. Likewise, to digest your evening meal properly, it is best to eat it no later than 6:30 or 7 p.m.
Any long-term disruption of this cycle, caused either by irregular eating habits or by placing the main emphasis on the evening meal and/or breakfast, leads to the accumulation of undigested foods and congests lymph and blood. This also disturbs the body’s natural instincts. If its instincts were intact and functioning properly, we would naturally want to eat only those foods that are suitable for our body type, and we would eat them when we could digest them best. One of the leading causes of gallstone formation is the accumulation of improperly digested foods in the intestinal tract. Eating meals irregularly, or having substantial meals at times of the day when the body is not prepared to produce the appropriate quantities of digestive juices, generates more waste than the body is able to eliminate (also see Disorders of the Digestive System in Chapter 1) .
