What impact does eating while squatting have on the body?

It is not good to eat while squatting. The disadvantages are as follows:

First, when squatting to eat, in order to maintain the balance of the body and prevent it from falling backward, a habitual posture of slightly leaning forward will inevitably be formed. This allows food to slide down one side as it passes through the esophagus. Over time, the esophagus will become deformed.

Secondly, when squatting to eat, the stomach is squeezed, and due to the bending of the lower limbs, blood circulation is blocked, which hinders the blood supply to the capillaries of the stomach. The normal digestive function of the stomach is affected and it is easy to Cause digestive tract diseases.

Third, when eating while squatting, because the legs are prone to fatigue, the eating speed is often too fast, and the digestion and absorption of nutrients will also be affected due to lack of careful chewing. Furthermore, eating hot rice quickly can easily burn the digestive tract, cause mucosal bleeding, and promote the proliferation of gastrointestinal mucosa or cause ulcers.

Fourthly, eating while squatting is often limited by space, and it is impossible to eat too many non-staple foods and vegetables. Such a single staple food meal, over time, will cause a variety of nutrients such as vitamins B1, B2, N The lack of acid and vitamin C can induce a variety of diseases, such as angular stomatitis, chapped skin, beriberi, and decreased body resistance.
