Glucose Spike Walking Rule
Walk 10–15 min within 30 min of any meal you expect to spike glucose. Consistently the largest free intervention for postprandial glucose.
Walk for 10–15 minutes within 30 minutes of finishing any meal you expect to spike glucose to lower the postprandial peak through non-insulin-mediated muscle glucose uptake. It is consistently the largest free intervention for postprandial glucose.

The protocol
- Rule: 10–15 min walk within 30 min of meal end.

- Frequency: any time the trigger occurs.
What you get
- A lower postprandial glucose peak.
- Improved metabolic flexibility.
- Better digestion.
Contraindications
- None — universally tolerated.
Evidence level
High. Post-meal walking lowering the glucose peak via muscle uptake is well-supported by multiple studies and is one of the most reliable free metabolic interventions.
