I believe many people will have the same habit as Bian Xiao, that is, they like to take a walk after meals every day. There are many sayings among the people, because walking after meals will help digestion and be beneficial to longevity. In fact, walking after dinner is also very particular. The following small series will introduce how to walk slowly after meals, which is good for your health.

Spleen is the foundation of the day after tomorrow, and whether people are healthy and safe is directly related to the stomach. The methods of strengthening the spleen include tonic and exercise, and exercise slowly after meals to help digestion of the stomach. This is also the result of the maintenance of "activating the spleen". Because of the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the spleen governs the limbs, the spleen governs the muscles of the whole body, and the limbs of fitness exercise are all transported spleen. It's not good for digestion to lie in bed and fall asleep immediately after eating. In ancient times, there was a saying "don't lie down after a meal". Lying flat after a meal will make the diet structure stagnate, and drinking quickly after a meal will make the limbs accumulate blood, which will endanger digestion, digestion and absorption. The theme activities after chewing slowly are beneficial to gastrointestinal peristalsis and promote digestion. This is the general principle of "abstaining from food and taking steps to benefit the people".

This "after a meal" should be 20-30 minutes after a meal, not a walk immediately after a meal. At the same time, we must pay attention to "don't worry when you are full." After a meal, Baizhang does not advocate grabbing food after a meal, but takes it slowly. Swinging hands and feet is not suitable for slow travelers. Also, some people are not suitable for eating after meals, such as patients with liver cirrhosis and patients with myocardial infarction.

Can I exercise after dinner? Some people are "full", but they feel full, but the nutrients are not digested and absorbed into the body, and the human body is still "hungry". At this time, if you stand up and leave in a hurry, some blood will be concentrated in the fitness exercise (sports food) system software, which will slow down the metabolism of digestive juice, destroy all normal digestion of the stomach and easily lead to multifunctional dyspepsia.

So taking a walk after dinner is not suitable for everyone. For people who usually have less exercise intensity, especially those who sit in the company office for a long time, it can improve the intestinal peristalsis of the stomach and help the digestion of food in the stomach. Moreover, for most people, it is best to take a walk after dinner 20 minutes later.
