Exercising After Eating — Is It Safe or a Myth?

In this episode, two doctors tackle one of the most common health questions: is it safe to exercise after a meal? From cramps to digestion myths, we separate fact from fiction.

Many people think you should always wait, but research shows that light activity — like walking — can actually help with digestion, reduce bloating, and stabilize blood sugar.

You’ll learn:

  • Do you really need to wait before exercising after a meal? 🍽️
  • Does eating before activity cause cramps? 🤔
  • Does rest improve digestion, or does movement help? đźš¶
  • Can exercise burn off the calories you just ate? 🔥
  • Why gentle movement within 15–30 minutes is the sweet spot ⏱️

If you’ve ever wondered how to balance food and fitness, this episode gives you clear, science-based answers from doctors.
