Posted on: 17/Oct/2019 10:51:48 AM
These days, the majority of us go to work. It must be noted that we tend to rush into doing many things from morning to the evening due to time constraints. There are many unhealthy things many of us do without knowing the side effects. Not many of us are aware of the things we must do before and after the consumption of meals.

These things must be avoided by us after consuming meals.

Drinking cold water:

This is one common thing most of us do after eating meals without knowing that it might create health issues. It is revealed that drinking cold water would result in poor digestion. It must be taken into account that it could cause the food to bind closely. Finally, it would result in difficulties in absorption.

Taking bath:

When we bath after taking food, the blood tends to flow to other parts of the body other than the stomach. It is advised to give at least 2 hours of time for taking bath after consuming food.

Drinking tea:

Are you one of those who sip a cup of tea after eating food? Please be careful, because it might lead to digestive based issues in you.  The point is protein we get from meals is hardened by the acid which makes it difficult to digest. Another issue is the absorption of iron could get affected by drinking tea after meals. It is better that we avoid consuming tea before and after meals.

Going for a walk:

Many of us have the habit of walking after taking meals. It is important to mention that any form of physical activity after food intake could cause indigestion and acid reflux in us. Next time, if you think about having a walk after consuming meals please avoid.

Loosening the pant belt:

Have you ever thought that loosening the pant belt after consuming heavy meals could lead to health issues in us?  It is true that many of us have this habit of loosening our pant belt after taking meals. It is said that by this we could get digestion based problems. Hence it is advised to keep the belt as it is even after consuming meals.
