A playful social media trend has spotlighted post-meal walks as a simple, scientifically supported way to promote healthy ageing. A medical professional recently endorsed the practice for older adults, sparking discussions about how a short evening walk could aid digestion, blood sugar control, and chronic disease prevention. The idea resonates with Thailand’s plan to address an ageing population through accessible, everyday health habits.

Thailand is expected to become a “super-aged” society, with 20% or more of residents aged 65 and over by 2031. Against this backdrop, easy-to-adopt wellness routines like a light after-dinner walk offer a culturally universal and low-cost approach to stay active. The conversation gained momentum after a doctor and an assistant professor at a medical school tweeted in response to a Canadian author who popularized the term “fart walks,” describing how gentle post-meal strolls support graceful ageing.
