Some things Avoid After Eating


There myths that after eating you should move about, eat fruits or even relax by sleeping for a while. We would like to correct these myths as they can actually harm your digestive system and cause health related issues. Here are seven things you should not do after eating.if you will not do these things, so you can become a healthly:

• Do not eat fruits immediately as eating fruits after a meal will cause your stomach to be bloated. Therefore eat fruits 1 to 2 hours after a meal or 1 hour before.

  • Do not smoke – Studies from experts proved that smoking a cigarette after a meal is comparable to smoking 10 cigarettes, causing higher chances of cancer, so dont smoke after eating meel.

• Do not drink tea  because tea leaves contain a high content of acid. This substance will cause the protein intake from the food we consume to be hardened and thus difficult to digest.

• Do not loosen your belt! Loosening the belt after a meal will easily cause the intestine to be twisted and blocked.

• Do not take a shower as it will cause the increase of blood flow to the hands, legs & body thus the amount of blood

around the stomach will therefore decrease. This will weaken the digestive system in our stomach.

• Do not sleep immediately – The food we take will not be able to digest properly. Thus will lead to gastric problems and infections in our intestine.

• Do not walk about – People always say that after a meal walk a hundred steps and you will live longer! It’s a myth! Walking will cause the digestive system to be unable to absorb the nutrition from the food we eat.
