Slower eating is usually related to poor coordination of masticatory muscle function, oral and dental problems, gastrointestinal function, which can be seen in facial paralysis, asymmetric bite, stomatitis, gingivitis, esophagitis, gastrointestinal dysfunction. 1. Masticatory muscle coordination function: the human body needs to rely on the masticatory muscles to continuously push the teeth to bite the food when eating, when there is a side of the facial nerve paralysis leads to the masticatory muscle movement ability deterioration, can only rely on the healthy side of the masticatory food, and sometimes meet the food is not easy to chew, the unilateral chewing will slow down the speed of eating. 2. Oral and dental problems: when children’s teeth develop asymmetrically or elderly people’s teeth fall off, the above conditions can lead to asymmetrical bite, which can’t chew food well; or when there are stomatitis, gingivitis, oral ulcers, etc., there will be pain when you eat too fast, so your eating speed will be slowed down. 3. Gastrointestinal function: when the intestinal tract is cold or infected, dyspepsia and enteritis will occur. At this time, the peristaltic function of the intestinal tube becomes poor, dysfunction of the intestinal flora, there will be a food accumulation in the intestinal tube and produce a large amount of gas, gastrointestinal flatulence will make the appetite decrease, early satiety, and the eating will become slower. When there is a slow eating need to clarify the cause of the disease, consult a professional physician for a detailed examination, timely treatment for the cause of the disease, so as not to delay the condition.
