Dangers of running on an empty stomach in the morning:

Running on an empty stomach in the morning can cause some people to experience symptoms of hypoglycemia, and sugar is the most economical and direct source of energy for the human body when running. Hypoglycemia can cause various uncomfortable symptoms such as palpitations, sweating, trembling hands and feet, etc. If this happens, you must replenish sugar as soon as possible (such as eating a piece of candy) to allow blood sugar to return to normal as soon as possible. Therefore, when running, especially long-distance running, you should pay attention to replenishing sugar and water, which is the guarantee of the human body's internal environment and the guarantee of energy supply. It is recommended to eat a meal before running on an empty stomach, such as a banana or half a piece of bread before running, and then have a full meal after running.

It is not advisable to run on an empty stomach in the morning

The reason why running on an empty stomach is not encouraged is that if you are running to lose weight, you will consume more energy during the running process. If you do not replenish it in time, it may cause irreparable damage to your body, which will be harmful to your body in the long run. In addition, since running consumes too much energy, the feeling of hunger will be stronger after running, so you may eat more food unknowingly, increasing the chance of weight rebound, causing running to have the opposite effect of weight loss.

Don’t eat too much before running in the morning

Also, about running on a full stomach. Running on an empty stomach is not good for your health, but running on a full stomach is also best avoided. Food needs to be digested after entering the stomach and intestines. At this time, a large amount of blood is concentrated in the stomach and intestines. If you run, it may cause indigestion and gastric ptosis; running with a full stomach will also increase the risk of appendicitis. You should wait at least 30 minutes after a meal before exercising, and it should be a small meal. The rest time should be doubled after a large meal.

Morning running is not suitable for everyone. People with asthma and other conditions that are not suitable for exercise are advised not to take the risk of trying this method. In areas with severe smog, especially in winter, everyone should be careful and take precautions and warm up. Although running in the morning may help you lose weight, if you neglect the pre-run work, your fat will easily turn into muscle!
