10-Mar-2026 A short walk goes a long way for your gut Fujita Health University Fujita Health University researchers investigated whether physical activity, like walking, can increase gut motility. Healthy adults walked for 20 minutes while bowel sounds were measured as a noninvasive indicator of gut motility. The study revealed significant increases in gut motility within just minutes after walking. These findings provide new insights into the immediate physiological effects of exercise on the digestive system and suggest a potential mechanism by which regular physical activity may help relieve constipation.
