After-meal fitness method
1, gargle
Gargling can remove food residues and some soft dirt in the mouth, reduce the number of bacteria in the mouth, and thus reduce the incidence of gastrointestinal diseases. Put mouthwash or clear water in your mouth, close your mouth, then stir your cheeks and lips to make the solution fully contact with your teeth in your mouth. Rinse all parts of your mouth repeatedly with hydraulic power to remove food residues and soft dirt left in the gaps between your teeth.
Step 2 take a proper rest
After a meal, the stomach is full, so it is necessary to ensure sufficient blood supply to the gastrointestinal tract for preliminary digestion. Get up and leave in a hurry at this time, and some blood will concentrate on the motor system, which will delay the secretion of digestive juice and destroy the normal digestion of the stomach. The correct way is to rest for 30 minutes after meals, which is helpful to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and secrete gastrointestinal digestive juice.
