Mastication means grinding, chewing, crushing, kneading, breaking down food into smaller, smoother and softer pieces - usually by one's teeth in the mouth.
The mastication is the first process in the eating and digestion process.
Without mastication, the food is solid, hard and so it is more difficult to gulp it as well as it takes more time to digest inside the stomach.
