Few hacks to stay healthy during the festive season

Hey there! Happy Diwali to all!!!

Rejoice!!!
Hope you all are having a great time and enjoying.
It's that time of the year again when there's a party,wedding or festival every other week.Yet,the celebrations have a flip side,as the high intake of rich food especially the Indian sweets can take a toll on your health.
Mindful eating is the way to go,as you can have your fill without it affecting your food.
1.Eat smaller portions and only what you love:A clever way of reducing your food intake is to focus on your favourite dishes.It is wise to take a round of all the food that is available and then pick up and eat only what you love the most,rather than over-eating and consuming the wrong food.This way you enjoy what you eat and limit the portion size.
2.Don't skip meal:It is common to skip a meal during the day to make up for excessive intake at a dinner party.However,this can leave you hungry and in turn,consume more food later at night.Instead,opt for light healthy meals through the day.
3.Have a light snack before going for a party:This can keep your hunger pangs in check and prevent you from bringing on unhealthy food at the party.Have salads or soups,so that you are partially full before a party,and can balance your indulgence.
4.Keep the fluids intake high:Ensure that you stay hydrated throughout the day by consuming ample water,Lemonade,fresh lime soda or coconut water.It helps you detoxify and you also tend to eat less in the long run.
5.Take super foods to aid digestion:Super foods speed up the body's metabolism.Aloe juice in the morning can be a good option.Vegetable juices made with beetroot,bottle gourd,apple,tomato or ginger are also good for boosting metabolism.
6.Detox with Fruits &Vegetables:After a night of eating heavy,it is advisable to go on a light diet of fruits and veggies in different colours.Fruits and vegetables are rich in antioxidants which help in removing the body toxins.
7.Eat High-Calorie foods before 10PM:Try to indulge in your cravings for High-Calorie foods before 10PM,when the basal metabolic rate is at its lowest.

Try taking these above mentioned cheats to help yourself to stay fit in coming days.
And like always,Stay Healthy....Stay Beautiful!!!
