After Meal Precautions: Some of our mistakes are responsible for not seeing the effect of healthy food on the body. If you also have this problem, then some such habits may be responsible behind it, which we do not pay attention to. People have been following these habits for years, but actually these are the reasons that are standing in the way of keeping our health fit. So let’s know about it…
Do not drink tea-coffee immediately after a meal
Tea contains polyphenols and a substance called tanning. Which completely destroys the nutrients of the food. Also, tea leaves contain a good amount of acid. Which does not allow the protein present in the food to reach the body and also causes problems in digestion. So change the habit. If drinking tea-coffee, keep at least an hour gap.
Do not drink cold drinks immediately after meals
Drinking water is beneficial for health, it keeps digestion correct, this is absolutely true, but drinking cold water immediately after a meal is very harmful. This habit slows down the digestive process, which can lead to gas, acidity and indigestion. So to avoid this, drink water at least 45 minutes after a meal, that too lukewarm.
Do not walk immediately after a meal
Take a short walk after a meal, many people may have heard and followed this advice, but the habit of walking after a meal also slows down digestion. Apart from this the essential nutrients in the food are also not absorbed properly. So walk at least half an hour after a meal and a 20 minute walk is enough.
Do not workout immediately after a meal
Do not forget to work out after eating, doing so can cause vomiting, diarrhea and severe abdominal pain. Exercising after a meal puts pressure on the digestive system, where blood does not circulate properly, causing the metabolism to slow down. Then many kinds of problems start.
Do not sleep immediately after eating
Most of the people are asleep soon after dinner. This habit not only invites obesity but also spoils digestion. When food is not digested properly, problems like constipation, acidity, intestinal infections can also occur.
