Direct Sleeping After Eating, Apparently Dangerous

Often hear the advice "Do not sleep immediately after eating"? Some say the rapid fat later. First, my grandmother said, "After eating straight to bed, you climbed into the chest rice ngerendem lungs. Later his chest felt hot."

I think it's just a myth. Science has also confirmed what my grandmother said, of course with a more scientific answer. Well, what are the dangers of sleep immediately after a stomach full of food?

Burning sensation in the chest
When the body's sleep and rest, the digestive system it will actually work harder. Straight to bed after eating can increase stomach acid levels and trigger heartburn. Sometimes it can also cause a burning sensation in the abdomen, chest, and throat.


Weight gain
Eating late at night before sleeping harmful because it causes the body to accumulate more fat. So if you wake up hungry at midnight, healthy snacks like fruit and salad is recommended for consumption rather than food such as cakes, pizza, noodles, or rice once.



Heat sense Throat

The occurrence of acid reflux. Gastroesophageal reflux diseases (GERD) or acid reflux is not to close the valve between the stomach and esophagus. This allows stomach acid to creep into the throat and cause the burning sensation of the throat.

Stroke
The results of a study conducted University of Ioannina, Greece, found that behavioral sleep immediately after eating can increase the risk of us having a stroke. Study involving 500 healthy people found that respondents who had the longest interval between eating and sleeping have the lowest risk for stroke.


There are two theories that could explain these results. First, acid reflux happens when we get to sleep after a meal may increase the occurrence of sleep apnea or breathing stops during sleep which can cause a stroke.

The second theory suggests, a stroke can occur due to the hard work of our digestive system which affects the increase in blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol levels which in turn could trigger a stroke.

When should we be able to sleep after eating? The best is 2 hours later.
