What are the present rules regarding the Eucharistic Fast?

The Church recommends that we fast from food and drink, except water and medicines, for one hour before receiving Holy Communion. In this way we begin our preparations and make ourselves ready to receive the Eucharist with respect and due devotion. The elderly and the sick, and those who care for them, are exempt from this norm.
