He said, “One of the most powerful lifestyle changes you can make is: 20 to 30 minutes after you finish a meal — any meal, all meals — try to walk for 10-15 minutes.”

Suggesting ways to do this, he says, “Maybe make a few calls, listen to music or a podcast. But make that routine if you can.”

He further reiterated, “20-30 minutes after a meal, walk for 10-15 minutes and see a change in the blood sugar levels post your meals. Try this, it works.”
