Post-meal five minutes walk makes huge difference on health

Health experts recommend that people should take a walk after their festive feasts to foster healthier habits during this joyous season.
This, however, does not mean that you must embark on an extensive hike to enjoy the benefits of a walk because even a brief five-minute walk can help prevent the post-meal slump that many experience during this time.
Registered dietitian for MedStar Health Nicholas Fischer said that walking after having meals may help increase energy levels, improve digestion, and control blood-sugar levels
He added that incorporating this simple tradition into your holiday routine can keep you active while indulging in richer foods, especially as the colder, darker months often encourage a more sedentary lifestyle.
Fischer further said that you’re getting that blood pumping; you’re giving your body a chance to circulate nutrients “If you sit on the couch all day, you’re more likely to be stiff and tired whereas if you get up, your body is more ready and able to move,” he added.
The dietitian said that people can start with what they can do, a five-minute walk, and they can build on it.
