Should you exercise before or after a meal?

Exercise should be performed in the morning on empty stomach and it is good to have light breakfast after exercise. One should also remember that don't just rest after meals. It is good to have slow walk for 10-15 minutes after meals. Very important thing about exercise, which I always convey to all my patients is "How much exercise you do is not important but how regular you do is more important". Do not give a break to exercise even if it is your own wedding day. Generally, it's best to exercise after meals. Your body needs readily available energy to burn in order to perform well and exercising when you're hungry and deprived of energy isn't the best. On the other hand, exercising strenuously immediately after a meal could cause cramps or an upset stomach- it's probably best to wait a half hour or more after a meal before exercising. If you are about to exercise, a light snack such as a protein-enriched granola bar might be best if it's a while before your next meal.

Medication should be discussed with your doctor for best results. Constipation can be somewhat alleviated by eating higher amounts of fiber. Exercise will improve the guts mobility and get fecal matter to move through your body quicker. There are several over the counter laxatives available if increased fiber and exercise does not help, this should be discussed with your doctor. Any major changes in your diet and exercise routine should be discussed with your doctor.


What are the pros and cons of water vs sports drinks?

Water hydrates you the best. It is good to drink it before and after exercise. Sports drinks have vitamins that recover electrolytes lost in sweat, which water doesn't. But sports drinks have lots of sugar, which is bad for you before before and after the exercise. The best time to drink them is during the exercise.
