Eating on bed is superstition linking to Rahu’s anger—it’s just gas trouble, no good or bad omens involved. Dr. Archita Mahajan, Senior Dietitian at Shah Hospital, Kaithal, debunks this myth

Scientific Benefits of Floor Eating

Sitting cross-legged on the ground (Sukhasana in yoga) activates digestion, stretches muscles, and improves blood circulation. This position signals the brain when full, preventing overeating and aiding weight control.

Health Advantages

Floor eating strengthens mind-gut connection, benefits spine and joints, and may relieve sugar and blood pressure issues over time. Traditional habit for better flexibility and natural digestion—no planetary wrath required. Dr. Archita, a nutrition expert with Master’s in Food Nutrition, homoeopathic pharmacist, and trained yoga teacher, recommends it for health.
