Diwali festival is a celebration of lights,
colours and festive sweets. But it also means lots of fried foods, sweets and
holiday weight. If you are planning a crash diet, here's a word of caution. Do
not crash diets and other forms of dieting as it may cause acidity, fatigue and
giddiness. Eat right to cut down the post-festive weight with these simple yet
effective ayurvedic health tips for post Diwali detox.
To start with most basic yet fundamental rule
for a healthy diet- avoid any further consumption of maida in any form,
at least for a few days. Refined wheat flour majorly lack in endosperm,
wheat bran and wheat germ which are the most nutritious part in wheat.
Similarly avoid bakery items, fried food and
excessive sugar intake. Do not keep yourself hungry, as it will only lead to
more fat storage and muscle loss. Long intervals between controlled meals can
result in binge eating that further affects metabolism which adds to body flab.
Exercising is the best way to balance health ups
and downs. Brisk walking, cardio exercises aid sweating which is a great way to
eliminate toxins from our body system. Yoga, surya namaskar aid in
concentration and better detoxification.
Water plays a very important role in Diwali
detox process. Good water intake levels maintain body temperature, moisture,
aids digestion, provides extra energy to muscles, gives clear complexion,
balances vaat-pitta-kapha doshas, helps weight management and so on. You can
also consider increasing intake of better drinks like coconut water which is
loaded with electrolytes and buttermilk that is beneficial for digestive
system.
Dos-
1. Try egg whites and sprouts-
They are rich in riboflavin and selenium, potassium,
mineral, muscle-enhancing protein, omega 3 fatty acids, zinc, iron, Vitamin K
and much more. In short, egg whites and sprouts are a powerhouse of health
boosting nutrients and minerals.
2. Fruits-
Daily wear and tear of cause unnecessary
friction in our body system which cause release of tension and harmful
oxidants. Fruits reduce this friction and are high in antioxidants available in
the most natural forms.
3. Smaller meals-
For Diwali detox, plan smaller yet healthier
meals. Smaller meals are easily digested and digesting food actually burns
calories. So, smaller but more number meals can mean more and more calorie
burning.
Don'ts-
1. Do not deprive your system from oil and
essential fats as winter is season of vatta prakop
2. Do not skip exercise under any circumstance.
3. Do not interrupt your recovery hours.
Sleeping for at least 8 hours is absolutely essential for our body systems to
recover from daily wear and tear.
