To summarize what is Fletcherism:
“ Don’t gobble your food Fletcherize, or chew
very slowly while you eat, Talk on pleasant topics. Don’t be in a hurry. Take
time to masticate and cultivate a cheerful appetite while you eat. So
will the demon indigestion be encompassed round about and his slaughter
complete”
—-John D Rockefeller.
“Right nutrition is easier than not if you only know how”—Horace
Fletcher.
Fletcherism

2. Select the most appealing appetite.
3. Get the good taste of food in your mouth, masticate well.

Horace Fletcher had written wonderful books on health and
Nutrition. He himself is his study of research. He was obese, often felt tired
and was a glutton with no physical activity, in his own words ” I am the
person to whom insurance companies refused to insure” He turned around himself
in terms of health and nutrition by applying his new discoveries of how to
intake food.
The above points if followed in eating gives us maximum
nutrition to our body irrespective of the food that we consume.
Disease, Chronic illness and tired feeling are a
result of body not getting the required nutrients. To get proper nutrients
to our body, the food has to be taken
and masticated well that is the food once taken
into the mouth, you have to shut your mouth, air shouldn’t enter the mouth, it
has to be mixed well with the saliva, tasted with the tongue, ground well with
the teeth, the semi solid juicy food then has to enter the alimentary canal,
and eating this way the body gets the maximum nutrients.
The saliva contains various enzymes which are a must for proper
digestion, the taste buds activates various other enzymes in the liver and the
stomach, thus the mouth cavity has many mysteries for proper digestion, if we
swallow the food, then we will not get the right nutrients.
Our body requires Carbohydrates, Proteins and fats along with
water, vitamins and minerals.
Thus Fletcherizing improves digestion and Nutrition. Proper
Nutrients ensure that the body doesn’t suffer from any disease.
