4. DON'T MIX FOOD AND LIQUIDS

A rule of thumb of the viva Mayr therapy is not to drink with your meals. Dr Stossier suggests drinking 15 minutes before eating and avoiding water or juices at lease an hour or so after food as the liquids tend to dilute digestive enzymes. But drink plenty of water, herbal teas, fruit and vegetable juices throughout the day. Aim for 2-3 litres of water daily.
