1.Why Do We Feel a Sudden Pain in Our Head When We Try Gobbling Ice Cream?
- When we eat cold food items like ice cream in a hurry, the temperature inside our throat changes rapidly.
- Due to this sudden temperature change, the blood vessels constrict, which is felt like a pain in our head.
2.Do Some Food Digest Faster Than Others. Why So?
- The time required to digest food depends on its constituents.
- Food that comprises carbohydrates like bread, biscuit, and cookies get digested quickly.
- Food that includes proteins like pulses, meat, and chicken takes longer to get digested.
3.What Are Opposite Foods? Why Should We Avoid Such Combinations?
- Our meal is a mixture of different food items. But some combinations of foods are not suitable for our health.
- The food combinations that cannot be digested easily together and may lead to digestive problems are called opposite foods.
Examples are as follows—
- Honey and Ghee
- Cheese and potatoes
- Lemon juice and milk
