Do u really did to Waite a 1/2 hour to swim after eating?

Question

its allways bothered be and i want to know if it is tru

Answer 1

No no no it is an old wives tale you can too go swimming after eating you will not drown

Answer 2

The contention that one must wait for "whatever" period following a meal before swimming has been studied thoroughly and has been proved conclusively to be false.  This is one of those "myths and legends" about swimming that continues to be circulated despite its being completely untrue.

Any physical activity immediately following a heavy meal is likely to make a person rather uncomfortable.  But thats the end of it right there.  No stomach cramps that make you drown.  Absolute horse hockey.  Bunk.  Nonsense.

Answer 3

HAHAA no. im on a swim team and we eat snacks like granola and redvines and oranges between heats.

i dont think anyone goes by that anymore
