You’re doing it wrong…

If you watch people swallow pills, they tilt their head back and toss the pills in and then try to swallow with their head tilted back.

Try tilting your head back when eating and you’ll see the problem – your body isn’t designed to be able to swallow well in that position.

What you should do is toss the pills in with your head tilted back as much as necessary, then tilt it forward as much as you can, and *then* take a drink. Do that and it’s easy to swallow pills.
