Weight gain has been linked to many health problems, so it is important that you choose your diet carefully during the festive season.

Health experts say that festive food contains high amounts of sugar and carbohydrates, which can not only lead to the risk of diabetes and its related complications but can also lead to rapid weight gain.

Let us know what measures can be taken to control weight in this Diwali/festival season.

Take care of hydration
By taking better care of hydration, not only can you keep your body healthy, it is also important to keep your weight under control. One should drink plenty of water during festival times. Drinking water helps in detoxifying the body. As excess fluids and wastes continue to leave the body, the risk of fat accumulation is reduced. Aim to drink at least 3-4 liters of water daily during festive periods.

Exercise and physical activity are important
Our everyday schedules, including our fitness habits, often get disrupted during the Diwali and festival season. During holidays, most of the day is spent sitting or resting, due to which physical inactivity increases. These conditions can cause rapid weight gain. Therefore, it is important that you take care of regular exercise and yoga even during holidays and keep your body active.

Take care of your diet
It becomes very important to take special care regarding eating habits during the festive season. Give priority to vegetables, fruits, lean proteins, and whole grains in the diet. If you choose foods rich in these nutrients, they can also help control calories and keep you feeling full. Consumption of sweet and processed food and drinks should be reduced, due to which the risk of weight gain is higher.
