How long to eat after workout?

I think I read somewhere that we aren't supposed to eat right after our workout. I haven't eaten yet today and just finished my workout for the day. How long do I need to wait before I can eat something?

And while I am at it I'll ask for future reference- How long should it be between eating and our workout if we eat before the workout?

Rules are different for you, two, you need to do what works for YOU with your medical history and not worry about what the "norm" is.

For everyone else who is wondering, I think its ok to eat either before or after (immediately) just not both. Do the option that works better for you.

Good to know. Thanks!
