Extended data:
The hazards of after-dinner exercise are:
1, affecting the weight loss effect: after eating, the parasympathetic nerve in the body will be inhibited. At this time, exercise will not only affect the digestive system of the body, but also seriously affect the weight loss effect.
2, gastrointestinal irritation leads to adverse reactions: just after eating, the food in the stomach will vibrate up and down with exercise, which will cause mechanical stimulation to the stomach, leading to adverse reactions such as stomach cramps and vomiting, so I can't stand up after a meal. That's the reason.
3, seriously affect the normal digestive function of the human body: exercise to lose weight requires a lot of blood to transfer oxygen, and after eating, the human body will concentrate a lot of blood in the stomach and digest the food just eaten as soon as possible. This will make the blood that should be concentrated in the gastrointestinal tract disperse to all parts of the body, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the gastrointestinal tract, reduced digestive function, disordered digestion and absorption, and seriously affecting health.
