One must be disciplined about eating times and routines to maintain excellent health. Improper digestion may cause a variety of health problems, which is why understanding what to eat and enjoying it carefully, as well as being aware of how much to consume, is critical.
What you consume affects your body. Skipping breakfast, eating a heavy lunch, or overdoing dinner are all examples of how we take our nutrition for granted, which has a negative influence on our health. Here are things you should never do after having meals.
1. Lying down after eating food
After you’ve eaten, your body is still in the middle of digesting food. Lying down or sleeping disrupts digestion since you are no longer in an upright position, which can cause discomfort, nagging pain, flatulence and other issues.
2. Taking a bath after eating
After eating, a lot of individuals take a bath, particularly on the weekends when they can take a shower right after lunch. However, doing so may disrupt your digestion.
3. Drinking water
Although it should always be your goal to stay hydrated, drinking something shortly after eating is not very beneficial. Drinking water after meals might dilute your gastric juice secretion and the enzyme, leading to acidity.
4. Eating fruit after your meals
Fruits are best consumed on an empty stomach or after a certain amount of time after a meal. Eating fruit immediately after meals may reduce its absorption and cause digestive issues.
