1. How long can I eat after yoga
Before and after doing yoga, the blood circulation of the body is stable, which is the best time for the body to detoxify. At the same time, it massages the viscera. Dizziness and nausea will occur after eating, and eating immediately after practicing will increase weight.
After practicing yoga, you usually need to be calm for at least 15 minutes before eating. If you are not hungry, you can eat half an hour later. Don’t eat when your breath is unstable or your body is still hot. When breathing is unstable, eating is easy to swallow air, which will cause stomach discomfort. People who want to lose weight can drink two mouthfuls of water to press their hunger before eating, or eat some fruit to avoid eating too much unconsciously.
