There is always an illusion that after eating, drinking yogurt and pulling a belly-you have lost weight again. Yogurt is a good thing, but it does not necessarily have this ability.
You must have heard about [XX can be done after dinner, not XX], such as:
Drinking yogurt after dinner helps digestion!
Exercise after meal leads to gastroptosis!
It is easy to drown when swimming after dinner!
But are all these statements reliable?
Today, Dr. Clove will tell you the truth behind these rumors.
First, can drinking yogurt after meals help digestion?
Cruelly, drinking yogurt after meals does not help digestion.
We often say that digestion requires regular gastrointestinal peristalsis and digestive enzymes. However, yogurt itself cannot correct the irregular gastrointestinal movement of the body, nor does it have digestive enzymes, which cannot really help digestion.
As for some yogurt and lactic acid bacteria beverages added with probiotics, it may be true that a bottle of [millions of active probiotics] can be transported, stored, bought home, and finally drunk. It is really hard to say how many of them can go all the way to the intestinal tract alive, but it is really hard to say.
In addition, yogurt is a food with a strong sense of satiety, and most of the yogurt sold on the market contains sugar. If you are already full, drinking yogurt again means eating more sugar and calories, which will make you fuller and more difficult to digest.
Therefore, if you are losing weight but still want to drink a cup of yogurt, it is recommended to halve the amount of food you eat first.
Second, does the exercise after meals cause gastroptosis?
Gastroptosis is mostly related to slender body shape and does not have much to do with whether you exercise after meals.
The word [gastroptosis] sounds a bit scary, but it is not a disease, it is only 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 will indeed affect breathing, gastrointestinal peristalsis, etc., making people feel uncomfortable.
Here, it is suggested that everyone should reasonably arrange the time for eating and exercising:
- 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.
Are people who swim after meals more likely to drown?
Swimming after meals has nothing to do with the increased risk of drowning.
Never swim within 1 hour after the meal. You are not allowed to have leg cramps or flood.
This statement has spread so widely that few people doubt its authenticity.
The medical common sense basis of this statement is that the stomach is rich in blood flow after meals, there is a lot of digestion work to do, and the blood flow distributed to muscles is less, so it is easy to twitch and even drown when swimming.
The American Red Cross Scientific Advisory Committee (ARCSAC) is also a 10 (HAO) (QI) and (BAO) industry. They reviewed a number of relevant clinical trial studies and consulted experts in relevant fields, and finally issued a statement: Swimming after meals and the increased risk of drowning really do not matter.
However, if you eat food containing alcohol, it will really increase the risk of swimming and drowning. When it comes to convergence, you should still restrain yourself.
In this way, no matter how familiar it is, it is not necessarily reliable. No wonder I have always felt that I understand the truth, but I still have a bad life.
It turns out that some reasons are wrong in themselves.
