Short post-meal stroll can blunt blood sugar spikes
Experts dispel the myth that walking after a meal causes stomach cramping, explaining that it can actually improve digestive health. Light exercise, like a stroll, aids in blood sugar management and enhances gastric emptying, reducing discomfort such as fullness and reflux. While walking 15 to 30 minutes post-meal is beneficial, it's not necessary after every meal. Even small movements or changes in position can positively impact digestion, particularly when heavier meals slow down the process.
