Drink plenty of water:
Water helps soften food, aids digestion and reduces feelings of fullness.
Drink water regularly throughout the day, especially after meals. Avoid drinking too much water right before or during meals to avoid diluting digestive juices.
Gentle walking:
Gentle walking helps stimulate the digestive system and reduce feelings of bloating.
After meals, take a light walk for about 10-15 minutes. Avoid strenuous activity immediately after eating.
Avoid lying down immediately after eating:
Lying down immediately after eating can cause acid reflux and indigestion.
Wait at least 2-3 hours after a meal before lying down. If you need to rest, sit up straight or lie on your left side.
Snack at next meal:
Snacking helps keep your digestive system from being overloaded and makes it easier to digest food.
Choose light foods such as fruits, vegetables, yogurt, or soup. Avoid greasy and heavy foods.
