Thought of the Day:Faith in the divine plan turns uncertainty into a sacred adventure.
It is common to go to office or college in the morning and drink hot milk or coffee urgently. So that it does not burn the mouth, we blow it loudly saying "Foo.. Foo.." and drink it.
At a young age, elders used to say, "Don't blow rice or milk, let it cool down a bit." Somehow, it should be table manners or else there will be leftovers.
But there is a shocking science behind this practice. What is the "chemical reaction" that takes place inside the milk when we blow? Is it good or bad for the stomach?
We all know that we take in oxygen and give out carbon dioxide (CO2). But when it comes to hot food, this CO2 works like a villain.
When we blow loudly on hot milk or food, carbon dioxide from our body mixes with the food.

Milk or food already contains water and nutrients. According to science, when carbon dioxide combines with hot water, carbonic acid and other acidic changes begin.
Andre, milk like nectar that we drink, turns light and acidic without our knowledge.
Instead of blowing and cooling the meal, our elders used to cool it by putting it in a wide plate or cup by cup (jaggi).
This is the best method. If this is done, oxygen will be mixed and not carbon dioxide.
Don't drink too much coffee because it is urgent. Wait two minutes or put it in a saucer and drink.
Health is hidden in such small habits.
