Dear Felix:

“My swallowing disorder doesn’t make me eat less, I can still eat a lot regularly by using water on each swallowing process. I don’t know why I have a weak stamina”- in a previous thread you shared that you don’t chew your food, that you consume liquid food/ food that doesn’t require chewing.

This is from www. healthline. com/ nutrition/ drinking with meals: “digestion starts in your mouth as soon as you start to chew your food. Chewing signals your salivary glands to start producing saliva, which contains enzymes that help you break down food”-

– if you don’t chew, your salivary glands do not produce saliva and the enzymes required to break down the food. So even if you consume enough food, much of the food may leave your body undigested, so the nutrients and calories in that food don’t stay in your body. Therefore, you may be malnourished.

One other concern: maybe drinking too much water with food interrupts its digestion in the stomach, also causing the nutrients and calories in the food to not be released to your body, therefore you don’t have much energy.

I read your second post where you wrote: “I really wanna explore more.. but I  know as I’m a lazy person”- to explore more you need to be well nourished and have more energy. If you fix your nutrition, you will be healthier and more energetic.. and maybe not lazy at all.
