Immediately after eating you should slowly drink a glass of cool or room temperature water to help flush the food on down your throat and help aid in digestion.

Other things you should do after eating a large meal are.

Take a 10-minute walk. “A walk outside can help clear your mind and also help improve blood sugar levels,” says Smith.
Relax and don't stress out. Don't be too hard on yourself, particularly if it's a one-time occurrence.
Drink water.
Take a probiotic.

Sipping on a cup of water (about 8 ounces) after a big meal can help your body get rid of excess salt you likely got from your meal.

It can also keep you from getting constipated. Continue to drink water over the rest of the day to keep yourself hydrated.

If you love ending a meal with a quick walk outside, it turns out the practice is beneficial to more than just your digestive tract.

Water is vital for good health. Water and other drinks help break down food so that your body can take in (absorb) the nutrients.

Water also makes stool softer, which helps prevent constipation.
