CNN Central News & Network-ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: Bloating, heaviness or gas after eating troubles many people. In such cases, a light walk for about 10 to 15 minutes after a meal can be a simple way to get relief. According to experts, walking after eating may speed up the process of stomach emptying, which can reduce the feeling of being overly full and ease some digestive symptoms.
According to Harvard Health, a 2021 study found that people who walked for 10 to 15 minutes after meals reported less bloating. Regular physical activity can also help with some symptoms linked to the digestive system and irritable bowel syndrome.
Cleveland Clinic experts say a light walk within 15 to 30 minutes after a meal can be useful. It may be especially helpful after a heavy meal. However, the effect is not the same for everyone, and persistent bloating may also be a sign of another digestive problem.
Therefore, instead of lying down immediately after eating, walking comfortably for a few minutes can become an easy habit. If bloating happens repeatedly, or if there are symptoms such as pain, vomiting, weight loss or blood in the stool, it is important to consult a doctor.
