What happens when you take a short walk after dinner?
After you eat, glucose from your meal begins entering your bloodstream. When you walk, your working muscles can use some of that glucose for energy, which can help reduce the rise in blood sugar after a meal.
A short post-dinner walk also adds movement to a time when you might normally be sitting.
It isn't a fat-burning trick, and 10 minutes isn't a magic number. It's simply an easy habit that can help you move more consistently.
Finish dinner. Put on your shoes. And walk.
