CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: Diwali is a joyous occasion – the perfect time to spend quality moments with loved ones. And often, quality time means indulging in delicious food, especially during the festive season. However, all that overindulgence can lead to digestive discomfort, fatigue, increased cravings, and a lingering sense of guilt once the festivities are over. You may find yourself looking for ways to naturally detox your body.
Renowned nutritionist and founder of Freedom Wellness Management – Ms. Naaznin Husein, brings you six tried-and-true tips to help you feel better, both physically and mentally, guiding you back towards a healthier you after the festive season. Psst… no crash diets here!
- Set realistic goals and track your progress
Getting back on track with health and fitness goals post-Diwali may seem daunting, so take it slow. Start with achievable goals suited to your current lifestyle and fitness level. Include balanced meals, yoga, or any physical activity that fits your schedule, and track your progress regularly. Monitoring progress can help maintain motivation and ensure consistency.
- Eat a healthy meal
Rather than depriving yourself, opt for a nutritious, wholesome meal rich in vitamins, fiber, and other essential nutrients. According to the National Institute of Nutrition’s latest dietary guidelines for Indians, nuts like walnuts are key players in a ‘healthy meal’! They not only support your immune system and heart but also aid overall wellbeing. Men should aim for 40-45g of nuts daily, while women should target 30-40g daily.1. Additionally, practice portion control and reduce sugar and salt intake to stay on track with your health goals.
- Drink plenty of water
Never underestimate the power of hydration! A balanced diet alone isn’t enough – increasing your water intake post-festivities is crucial. Water flushes toxins from your body and boosts immunity. It can also help reduce bloating, promote satiety, improve skin, maintain energy levels, regulate body temperature, and more.
