3. You are at a swim party when your friend asks you if you'd like to go back in

the pool. You've been standing at the food table for several minutes, trying the
various snacks. How long should you wait before swimming, and what are the
consequences of exercising too soon after eating?

If you get in the pool after eating you can throw up and you can also develop crams and risk of drowning

You should wait 45 minutes before going back into the pool. Although 45 minutes may seem like a long time, doing physical excercice right after eating usually result in cramping. If you start cramping while your swimming you can drowning.

Hope this helps! :)
