Burn Calories By Walking

Walking immediately after eating is not advisable, especially after a large meal



Because, your cardiovascular system would be strained and the heart be deprived of its own essential blood supply



Exercise should therefore begin, after the meal has passed through the stomach and the small intestine.

Walking 60-90mins after a moderate meal, 45-60mins after a small meal aids digestion as it nudges food gently along the digestive tract



Walking allows oxygen to be evenly distributed to all the body’s internal organs.

There is a 4-fold advantage for dieters who walk before and after meals Firstly, walking before eating reduces our appetite Secondly, walking any time burns calories directly



Thirdly, walking 45-90mins after a small to moderate sized meal burns 10%-15% more calories than walking on an empty stomach. Altogether actual digestion of food, combined with the gentle action of walking elevates the metabolic rate slightly and burns more calories per hour. Fourthly, even long after you complete your walking exercise-program you continue to burn calories.
