Can I have breakfast in yoga in the morning?
You can have breakfast when you practice yoga in the morning, but it should be noted that you should not practice yoga immediately after breakfast. It is best to wait for a period of digestion before practicing yoga, giving the body a buffer time.
For people with weak constitution such as hypoglycemia, fasting exercise is not good for your health, so you can choose to do yoga exercise about half an hour after breakfast. Because of yoga requirements, if you feel tired before practicing, you can't practice. If you have just finished eating, you will concentrate on your digestive system. Practicing yoga at this time will reduce the effect of yoga. Practicing yoga after meals will also have a heavy feeling, which will easily lead to inattention and fatigue and reduce the effect of yoga. The reason is that after eating, the blood of the body is mainly concentrated in the digestive system of the human body. If you exercise immediately after eating, it will easily lead to indigestion. More dangerous is gastrointestinal spasm, which can lead to life-threatening in severe cases.
How about practicing yoga after breakfast in the morning?
Not so good. If you have food in your stomach, you will feel heavy when you practice and your body will not be able to fully twist.
When doing exercises, food will move with the body in the stomach, which is not good for health. Moreover, yoga not only acts on the body, but also acts on energy. If there is food in the stomach, energy can't reach every part of the body, and most of the energy will flow to the digestive system to digest food. It is no good to practice. Therefore, the best time for yoga practice is on an empty stomach in the morning. If you eat plenty of food, you should practice at least three to four hours apart. And you have to wait half an hour to eat after practice.
How about practicing yoga on an empty stomach in the morning?
It is the best choice to practice yoga on an empty stomach in the morning, because the energy consumed by practicing yoga on an empty stomach comes from fat, not muscle, and if you practice after meals, the energy consumed often comes from the carbohydrates you just ate. We must let the body get energy from the accumulated fat in order to minimize fat. However, it must be noted that an empty stomach does not mean hunger. If you feel hungry, you can drink some liquid food such as milk and honey before practice. Don't do any exercise when you are hungry, otherwise it will do harm to your health.
