Rumor: Gastroptosis Caused by Exercise after Meal.
Truth: Gastroptosis is mostly related to slender body shape and has little to do with whether you exercise after meals.
The word [gastroptosis] sounds a bit scary, but it is not a disease, but an anatomical state in which the stomach is relatively low.
The existing evidence does not show that gastroptosis can cause various stomach discomfort. But then again, exercise immediately after meals does affect breathing and gastrointestinal peristalsis, making people feel uncomfortable.
Suggestions for Reasonable Scheduling of Eating and Exercise
- Within half an hour after the meal: Don’t take strenuous exercise, you can do some lightweight activities, such as wiping the table and sweeping the floor. One hour after dinner: You can do moderate-intensity exercises such as fast walking and jogging. Of course, it is also how you feel comfortable. If the exercise at this time makes you uncomfortable, Dr. Clove suggests you take it slowly. Two hours after dinner: This is the best time to exercise, and you can safely take all kinds of physical exercises.
