Say No To These Post-Meal Acts

Article Abstract by: KarthikVenkatesan    

Original Author: Karthik Venkatesan
You need to care for your digestive system after you eat because it
is the most vital organs for the using up of consumed
food. Here are
some things you SHOULDN''''T do after your meal.No Smoking : Smoking soon after a meal is equivalent to smoking 10 cigarettes. This results in higher probability of cancer.No
Fruits : Eating fruits soon after a meal results in the bloating of
your stomach with air. This results in body parts being affected.No Tea : Tea leaves contain a high amount of acid which hardens the protein content and minimizes the absorption of protein.No
loosening of belt : The old theory says " loosen your belt after a
meal." But loosening the belt will result in the intestine being
blocked and twisted in odd anglesNo Baths : Bathing increases
the flow of blood in our arms and legs. This will result in the low
circulation of blood in the stomach which will eventually weaken the
stomach.No Walking : No, walking does not allow food to be
digested quickly. The continuous motion prevents the smooth absorption
of nutrients.No Sleeping : Sleeping of lying 180 degrees will prevent the absorption and even cause infections in the intestine.So, remember not to do any of these 7 after-meal acts and lead a healthy life.
