Many of us are aware of the reason behind this. But, this is for who don’t know.
Sitting on the floor while eating is an important part of the culture in Tamil Nadu (South India). Nowadays, buying a dining table has become an essential requirement for a home. It has become fashionable to serve food for guests at the dining table.
Earlier, serving the food on the banana leaf on the floor was an honor. Now it has become a Dining table. Is it the right way? What’s the purpose our ancestors followed that way? The simple reason is that we need to fold the legs at least while eating.
If we hang the legs while eating, most of the blood flow will go to the legs instead of the abdominal area. So it will delay digestion.
If we fold the legs while eating, the blood flow will be stopped to the legs, and the entire blood circulation will happen in the abdominal area. So while eating, the digestion will start in parallel. So that our ancestors recommended this way of eating!! If you like this information, share and comment with your friends and relatives.
