Minuman
• Pilihan terbaik ialah air biasa suam kerana kopi (jenis segera, bukan kopi ‘kampung’) dan teh mungkin mengakibatkan angin terperangkap di dalam perut.
• Bawa sebotol air di dalam beg atau kereta supaya anda boleh minum di dalam perjalanan balik dari Rumah Terbuka itu.
• Pilih jus buah-buahan kerana ia lebih menyihatkan tetapi buah-buahan tertentu boleh menyebabkan rasa ‘hilang’ bila anda menikmati makanan lain.
• Elakkan minuman berkarbonat kerana lazimnya ia terlalu manis kerana kandungan gula yang sangat tinggi.
• Jangan ambil minuman berais. Jika ingin minum ais, haruslah sekurang-kurangnya 2 jam sebelum atau selepas mengambil makanan berat. Ini supaya sistem penghadaman tidak terganggu.
• Minum perlahan-lahan. Jika terlampau gelojoh, angin akan masuk ke dalam perut dan mengakibatkan rasa memulas terutama bila telah kenyang.
• Cuba agar jangan mencampurkan berjenis minuman pada satu masa. Hanya minum satu jenis saja dengan air biasa atau air mineral. Jika minum kopi panas setelah habis makan telah menjadi amalan, boleh saja teruskan.

Ramai yang mengadakan OPEN HOUSE di bulan Syawal ni. Di sini saya kongsi beberapa petua yg mungkin boleh dijadikan panduan.

Ketika makan
• Setelah dijemput untuk merasa juadah, mulakan dengan hirisan buah-buahan.
• Ambil juadah utama dalam
jumlah sedikit, diikuti kuih-muih dan sebagainya. Ini penting terutama jika anda mempunyai banyak lagi rumah untuk diziarahi.
• Jangan letak terlalu banyak makanan di dalam pinggan (jika jamuan buffet). Ini adalah membazir jika tidak dihabiskan.
• Jangan mencampurkan gulai berlada hitam dengan masakan bercili merah atau cili kering. Kepedasannya mungkin membuat perut sakit.
• Elakkan mengambil makanan yang dihinggapi lalat. Pilihlah yang di sebelah bawah atau di dalam kuah yang tidak terdedah kepada lalat. Lebih baik tidak mengambilnya langsung. Jika anda kenal tuan rumah, bisikkan padanya tentang lalat yang banyak itu.
• Kurangkan makanan bergoreng kerana ia mengandungi lemak daripada minyak gorengan. Sebaik-baiknya, buangkan kulit ayam goreng sebelum dimakan.
• Elakkan makanan yang terlalu masin kerana anda akan berasa haus dengan cepat dan minum lebih banyak air. Bila perut penuh dengan air, anda tidak selesa menikmati makanan lain.
• Hindari jeruk atau makanan yang diperam lama kecuali anda minum banyak air suam selepas memakannya. Jeruk boleh menyebabkan gas terkumpul di dalam perut terutama bila anda makan terlalu kenyang.
• Ambil sajian pencuci mulut (dessert) yang lembut dan mudah hadam. Gunakan sudu kecil untuk menyenduk puding.
• Jika ada hidangan barbque, lebihkan pengambilan timun atau sayur-sayuran lain kerana ini dapat mengurangkan efek ‘carcinogen’ yang terdapat pada bahagian hangus makanan itu.
• Ambil salad atau sayur-sayuran supaya mendapat mineral dan zat yang diperlukan oleh tubuh. Nutrien inilah yang akan membantu proses pencernaan makanan.
• Elakkan pengambilan terlalu banyak bahan karbohidrat yang mudah mengenyangkan seperti nasi, nasi impit, mee, bihun, pasta, pulut, roti dan lain-lain. Ia boleh menyebabkan perut anda sebu.
• Gunakan pinggan yang kecil bagi mengawal pemakanan. Jika pinggan besar, anda berpotensi untuk mengambil lebih daripada yang sepatutnya anda makan.
• Hindari makanan yang terlalu pedas atau terlalu masam. Ia boleh membawa akibat buruk kepada mereka yang menghidap gastrik atau pedih ulu hati.
• Jangan makan terlampau banyak kek dan biskut yang manis dan lemak atau bersalut coklat kerana ia mengandungi banyak kalori yang boleh mengakibatkan kegemukan.

Green vegetables also help with vision, and with maintaining strong bones and teeth. Some of the yellower green vegetables have carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin that help to prevent cataracts and eye disease, as well as osteoporosis. Photo: List of Foods That Ease Constipation and Promote Bowel Movement

Bad diet is among the main causes that lead to constipation. It includes eating low-nutrient foods, not drinking sufficient water and consuming too much coffee and tea. All these factors may contribute to improper bowel movements that result in constipation.

As you grow older, the body produces less digestive acids which include digestive enzymes, pepsin and hydrochloric acid. When this natural phenomenon occurs, you are at a higher risk of becoming the victim of constipation. The good news is, with proper diet and adequate workout, you can actually avoid chronic constipation. Below are some good foods that help to prevent or relieve constipation: 

Prune Juice
Prune juice is rich in dietary fiber. Fiber is mass that helps pushes everything in your stomach and intestines forward when it moves through you and ultimately out of the body. Besides food fiber, the laxative power of prune juice is also attributed to sugar alcohol known as sorbitol. When sorbitol is detected in the intestine, it triggers chemical reactions that draw water into the intestine. Increase of water in the intestine eases the bowel movement. Apart from the two factors that are mentioned above, prunes have got another laxative compound known as diphenyl isatin. With all these powerful compounds, prunes are one of the most effective beverages that ease constipation problems.

Ripe Bananas
Bananas are a good source of soluble fiber known as pectin, which are useful in regulating movement through the intestines, thereby treating constipation. Eating a medium banana provides you with more than half of your daily requirement for fiber intake. Bananas also contain another compound called fructooligosaccharides (FOS). It is a natural carbohydrate that promotes the growth of good bacteria and aids in digestion of foods. The presence of FOS does not only ease constipation, but also helps improve diarrhea. Unripe bananas, on the other hand, can cause constipation. Tannins and heavy starches found in green bananas can result in constipation, so you have to avoid them.

Apples
Apples are a good source of both soluble fiber and insoluble fiber. Soluble fiber soothes the digestive tract, normalizes the intestinal contractions and regulates bowel function to prevent constipation and diarrhea. Insoluble fiber does not dissolve in water. It passes through the gastrointestinal tract quickly and helps pushes the food and waste out of your body.

To get the best out of apples, you should consume the fruit on empty stomach, especially in the morning. Do not discard the apple peel if you want to get the most fiber out of it.

Papayas
Papayas contain a compound called papain, which is a protein-digesting enzyme. It helps the body breaking down proteins into over 200 amino acids. Papaya enzyme also has antioxidant properties that promote digestion, as claimed by George Mateljan Foundation. Nutrients such as beta-carotene, vitamin C, folate, vitamin E, fiber as well as plenty of water are found in papayas, which are all colon-friendly compounds. As reported by the World’s Healthiest Foods website, the enzymes in papaya are anti-inflammatory, which prevent intestinal infection due to debris buildup.

Cabbage
There is a waxy, indigestible substance in the head of cabbage called roughage. Roughage is another name for dietary fiber. Due to its presence, cabbage is a good food to relieve constipation, especially when served with a dash of pepper and freshly squeezed lemon juice. When eaten raw or made into soup, cabbage raises the levels of iodine, sulfur and chlorine in your body through chemical reactions. Chlorine and sulfur work hand-in-hand to get rid of a clogged intestinal tract. A low-calorie cabbage meal can help ease the constipation problem.
