Almost all children have the obligation to wait an hour after the meal darkfall gold for the right to bathe safely. Yet scientists do not agree with the sensible people on that subject.

How long between lunch and swimming?

In other words, there is no valid argument to ban swimming after lunch, whether the recreational bathing children, the parents refreshing swim or swimming sport. Of course, it is best to avoid eating very rich, very fat and doused with alcohol, because by prolonging the digestion, such meals are accompanied by a feeling of discomfort regardless of the type of activities from reading to nap through swimming.
