What do you do once you have finished eating a meal? Do you exercise or relax? Well, researchers have found that fart walking is beneficial to one’s health.
Yes, fart walking. Fart walks are when you take a walk after consuming a meal to help with the digestion of food. People who walk for at least 10 minutes daily after eating experience plenty of health benefits. One of the benefits is having a reduced chance of getting type 2 diabetes.
When humans eat, their bodies absorb a lot of fiber from the foods they consume. These foods are then digested by our bodies and converted to glucose. Type two diabetes usually occurs when the pancreas does not create enough insulin to manage the glucose in the blood or when cells become immune to insulin, causing them to take in less glucose. No matter the cause, type two diabetes causes someone to have more than usual glucose in their blood.
Another benefit of taking a fart walk is a peaceful full night of sleep. Fart walking improves the natural sleep-wake cycle, making it easier for the person who is walking to fall asleep. Walking also helps cleanse your body from post-meal discomfort. Removing meal discomfort helps people sleep longer and more comfortably.
Now that you know the benefits of fart walking, what is the best way to fart walk? Fart walking is all based on personal preference. Ten minutes of walking may be beneficial enough for one person, while five minutes may be beneficial for another. However, overdoing fart walks, such as running or light jogging, will give people upset stomachs. It is best to walk briskly, about 3 miles per hour.
All in all, walking every day after meals will provide plenty of benefits that will last a lifetime. However, don’t overdo it. Such activities should be done in moderation.
