And go take a hike. It's good for you:
“Insulin secretion in response to a meal tends to wane later in the day, and this is especially so in older people,” DiPietro says. She points out that many of us eat our largest meal of the day in the evening, and we also tend to sit around afterward. As a result, “blood glucose levels will rise very high and will stay elevated for hours,” she says.
Taking a walk after dinner burns away excess glucose because that's what powers your muscles. All it takes is a ten-minute walk within an hour or so after dinner to make it easier for a body to manage blood sugar levels, which lowers blood pressure levels and (supposedly) reduces risk of depression.
Nothing to lose; much to gain. Take a hike.
