When it's time for eating, the stomach has slowly secreted the gastric juice to be ready to digest food ever before the food comes in the mouth. When the food enter the stomach by way of the oral cavity, the stomach will begin the digestion immediately.

If one drinks too much water before eating, it will dilute the gastric juice and weaken its digestion function, causing the food unable to be digested and absorbed completely. That'll gradually cause the intestines and gastric diseases.
