Half an hour after breakfast
● Don't rush to exercise to avoid indigestion.
● Massage the knee joint with your hand, which can smooth the stomach meridian, dispel the cold and protect the joints in cold winter, which is a good way to keep fit.
Half an hour after lunch
● Half an hour after lunch is the key time to adjust your physical and mental state. As the saying goes, "If you don't sleep at noon, you will collapse in the afternoon.
● Even if you can't sleep, you'd better stretch your limbs, take a few deep breaths and relax your tight body.
Half an hour after dinner
● Don't rush to exercise, and don't bathe or soak your feet. Doing so will increase the blood flow on the body surface, and reduce the blood flow in the gastrointestinal tract, thus weakening the digestive function of the stomach.
● Do some housework during this period, such as washing dishes or tidying the room, so that you can move around without causing burden to the digestive system.
Don't do five things after dinner
Eat fruit after dinner
After the food enters the stomach, it needs to be digested for 1 to 2 hours. If you eat fruit immediately after eating, it will be blocked by the food you have eaten before, causing the fruit to be unable to digest normally and easy to form flatulence. Because fruit contains many monosaccharide substances, which are easily absorbed by the small intestine. If it is blocked in the stomach, it will form flatulence and constipation. It is best to eat fruit between meals. For those with high blood sugar, it is not recommended to eat fruit immediately after meals.
Exercise immediately after meals
Within half an hour after the meal, the stomach became very heavy because it accepted the food. At this time, taking part in sports (even light sports such as walking) will make the stomach suffer from "turbulence", affect the digestive function, and even cause stomach disease in the long run. Therefore, it is better to sit for half an hour after eating, and then go out for light activities such as walking.
Drink strong tea after dinner
Drinking tea immediately after meals will dilute gastric juice and affect food digestion. At the same time, the tannic acid in tea can turn the protein in food into a non-digestible coagulant, which increases the burden on the stomach and affects the absorption of protein. Tea contains a large amount of tannic acid, which combines with iron in food to prevent the absorption of iron in the intestine.
Go to bed immediately after eating
Some office workers often feel sleepy due to the feeling of fullness after eating dinner at home. In addition, they are tired of working during the day, so they sleep for a while. Sleeping after eating will aggravate the burden on the stomach and cause food accumulation in the body, resulting in obesity.
Take a bath immediately after dinner
After taking a bath after dinner, the blood flow on the body surface will increase, and the blood flow in the gastrointestinal tract will decrease accordingly, thus weakening the digestive function of the gastrointestinal tract and causing indigestion. Scientifically speaking, do not wash when you are hungry before meals, which is easy to cause hypoxia and temporary anemia. It is not good to wash immediately after meals, preferably one hour or more after meals. Taking a bath before going to bed will eliminate the fatigue of the day and make you fall asleep easily.
Do this after eating
Take a 15-minute rest after dinner, listen to some soft music and drink some tea, but not too much. This will help prolong life and digest food.
After half an hour, rinse or brush your teeth, including a mouthful of milk, and let it stay at the teeth to help the calcium absorption of the teeth. Protect your teeth to be healthier.
Then there is walking, not just walking. In the process of walking, you should adjust your breath, try to adjust it rhythmically and steadily, so that it is more in the digestion and absorption of the intestines and stomach.
