Welcome :)

Short answer?  From now to the end of your life.

Longer answer?  ALWAYS at least 30 minutes after eating.  YMMV on before eating, but what does your Centre say?

mmm

Yup, as above, always. This early out though pretty much most things are liquid, but the rule is once your into the blended food, like eating things not pureed, thats really when you must stick to the rules. What has your centre told you?

Here is a great youtube video which simply demonstrates why we do not drink with meals.     http://youtu.be/xR0VM3mnsgM
