Gulping, How To Sip

[2013]

[Kathy]

So, I have a tendency to gulp cause my mouth is so dry.

[Aajonus]

Just gotta learn to only have a sip at a time.

If you're having, let's say a tablespoon a minute. You're 90 minutes, that's 90 tablespoons. That's 45 ounces. That's more than a quart. but don't bring a straw.

You take a straw, absolutely, if you like a straw, that's how I train myself to sip. I only drank through a straw for a while that way I couldn't drink, I couldn't gulp and I use a thin glass straw.

[Attendee]

Where would you find one?

[Aajonus]

I got it at a medical laboratory. They have different ones that are different sizes.

What happens to the body when you do gulp?

[Aajonus]

Well, any kind of fluid that you gulp, the H20 has a tendency to go to the kidney and is not carried with the nutrients to the cell. So, it causes dehydration. Especially if you drink it with cold fluids.

[Kathy]

Well, I've better reduce the tablespoons, I have a wide glass straw.

[Aajonus]

Well, then put your tongue up against it, so you have pressure, you have to get beyond the tongue. Put the straw on the tongue, so it makes the hole smaller.

You can just have a little spoon and just feed yourself?

[Aajonus]

Yeah. But when you suck, you have all the enzymes, like in a baby, all the bacteria that comes out of the salivary glands.
