Question

Why we should not breathe while eating?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Chewing and digesting food -- like anything else you do with your body -- use oxygen. That means you need to work harder to breathe in enough of it while you eat. At the same time, the food in your stomach crowds your lungs and diaphragm, which makes their job harder

Answer 2

That means you need to work harder to breathe in enough of it while you eat. At the same time, the food in your stomach crowds your lungs and diaphragm, which makes their job harder. And conditions like COPD or asthma may make your lungs bigger, leaving less room in your chest.
