Healthy Diet Tips During Holidays

 

Instead of worrying about weight gain during the winter holiday season, nutritionists recommend

a focus on maintaining body weight in the norm by following a few simple strategies for healthy eating. During the holidays is enough to adhere to the following tips.

You should never sit at the holiday table hungry. Before the main meal, you should snack – for example, eat yogurt and some fruit. This will help avoid overeating at the party. Consumption of low-calorie foods in small portions throughout the day also compensates for the severity of greasy and heavy meals at night. The most important thing is to eat slowly.

Do not put in a plate a lot of food. Use a small plate and start with the vegetables. Try to choose low calorie dishes.

Drink more water in small portions throughout the day. Water removes toxins from the body and most importantly it has no cholesterol, no fat, no calories.

During the holidays is difficult to refuse from alcoholic cocktails and ice cream. They contain carbohydrates that are practically not absorbed by the body, and this may lead to weight gain. Therefore, the use of these products is better to restrict or replace them. From cocktails on the basis of fizzy drinks should be abandoned, replacing them with drinks, made from natural fruit juices.

Overweight arises from the fact that we consume more calories than we spend. Consequently, make exercises compulsory part of the day. As practice shows, 10 – 30 minutes of exercise in the morning is the best time to get rid of the unpleasant consequences of excess weight.
