Why going for a "Fart Walk" is important for your gut health

We all let the random fart slip when going for a walk, but a Canadian dietician says don't be shy and "let em rip."

Canadian cookbook author Marilyn Smith calls them " Fart Walks" and says they are great for your digestive health.

It's the easiest thing to do; simply go for a walk after dinner to get the gases out of your system.

A brisk post-dinner stroll helps move gas through your system while giving your body a wellness boost. Walking for 20-30 minutes will get things moving internally and help you age beautifully.

Gas is a normal part of digestion, and helping move it through will prevent annoying things like bloating, cramps, and even more gas build-up.

Smith adds that an after-meal stroll also helps reduce the risk of type II diabetes.

So once you tidy up after dinner tonight, lace up the sneakers and sneakily crop dust the neighbourhood.
