Query: Proper Interval Between Eating And Drinking

[bandpal 7]

Hi, everyone - I'm on my first day of mushies. While I know not to eat and drink at the same time, I'd like to know, from your experience, how much time should go by after eating before it's okay to drink again.

:help:

I always wait an hour

My doc advises no liquids 30 minutes before eating and an hour after a meal. I've seen some folks post 30 minutes after a meal as well. It depends on your doctor I guess!

It would be wise to follow whatever timeframe your MD recommends! Good luck!

My doctor said I could drink up to my meal, but not during my meal. After 30 minutes have passed, I can then drink. I tried drinking once during a meal, it was awful, I immediately got stuck. That cured me of that habit in a hurry. :sick

My doc says anywhere from 30 min -1 hour (that goes for both before and after a meal). I usually try to wait an hour if possible.

My doc says 30 minutes before and after a meal.

I can't figure out why it would matter if I drink Water before a meal?
