Why do you say you should have a rest before and after meals? What are the benefits of resting for a while before and after meals?
Our human body needs digestive fluid to digest food. However, digestive juice does not come at once. It needs a certain time process. Therefore, it's better to have a little rest before eating to prepare for the secretion of enough digestive juice. In this way, you will feel delicious when you eat, and it will be easy to digest after eating.

After eating a meal, the stomach is full, the stomach and intestines should step up digestion. The stomach and intestines do these work, need blood to help, give it 'refuel', otherwise also can't do well. If you go to engage in strenuous physical activity or mental work immediately after eating, the blood in the body will flood into the muscles or brain of the whole body, leaving less to help the gastrointestinal work.
In this way, the gastrointestinal work is not vigorous, food can not be very good digestion, a long time, will make indigestion, stomach distension, stomachache and other problems. Therefore, before and after meals should rest for a while, especially just after dinner, do not do heavy work, do not read and write. It's better to take a walk and do some light activities to help the stomach and intestines digest food better.
