Don’t run when you’re full

Many people think that after eating a meal, you need some exercise to digest better. In fact, it is not advisable to run or do strenuous exercise after eating a meal. Not only does not have the good function, on the contrary will have the certain harm to the body.

Exercise after meals is not advisable

When you have just had a full meal, the stomach is full of food, and the blood flowing to the gastrointestinal tract increases. If you exercise at this time, because the muscle activity of the body is strengthened, the blood will be busy supplying muscle activity, so that the blood supply of the gastrointestinal tract and other organs is relatively reduced, affecting digestion, causing poor digestion or gastrointestinal diseases.

The rest time after meals should be determined by the individual’s physique, amount of exercise and intensity of exercise. People who are healthy and exercise regularly can do proper jogging or walking after an hour’s rest. When the digestive system adapts, they can do other exercises. At the same time, for those who don’t often exercise or have weak physique, the time between them will be longer. In addition, the rest time is also related to the nature of the food. After eating more difficult to digest food, the rest time is longer.
