Festivals are a time of celebration and merry-making. However, most of our bad and unhealthy eating choices sprout from them. It's also no secret that many people use festivals as an excuse to cheat on their diets (Caught you!).
This month, come July 7th, people all across the world will celebrate Eid-ul-Fitr, which marks the end of the sacred month of Ramadan.
After an entire month of fasting, the temptation to binge-eat is strong and the tendency to do the same is manifold.
However, going back to your regular eating habits after fasting for so long, may cause your digestive system to go into shock, since it is not used to digesting heavy food anymore.
It is important to ease the body into ingesting normal portions of food over regular intervals. Below are some useful tips to eat healthy on Eid!
Avoid heavy meals
Go for healthy food
Reduce salt intake
High salt levels in food can make you feel bloated owing to fluid build-up. Alternatively, try using other herbs and spices like parsley, coriander powder, thyme, rosemary, pepper, chilli powder, etc., which are healthier options and are rich in essential vitamins and minerals, as well as anti-bacterial properties.
