When is the last time you took a constitutional?

Taking a constitutional, or a short walk after a meal, used to be a way of life...

There is more modern evidence than ever that we should get back to basics and make that post-meal stroll part of our daily or evening routine. Walking after a meal speeds the rate of digestion and even decreases our blood sugar levels. That’s good for our cardiovascular system and can help stave off health risks such as diabetes. Those who take regular 15 minute walks after dinner each night also report a better overall sense of well-being.
