Long food tables full of meat and heavy dishes abound during the Eid al -Adha period, which may negatively affect health when eating foods, and with the many days of Eid al -Adha holidays, there are many unhealthy eating habits, but you can follow some simple tips to avoid weight gain on Eid al -Adha.
Tips to avoid gaining weight on Eid al -Adha
Moderation in eating meat
The sacrifice meat abounds on the table, but excessive consumption, especially fried or fatty types, leads to weight gain, and you have to choose low -fat pieces and grill them instead of frying them, and be sure to eat moderate amounts of them.
Avoid excessive desserts
Sweets are among the most prominent of any feast, but it contains large amounts of sugar and fat, and you can replace traditional sweets with fresh fruits or prepare light home sweets using healthy sugar alternatives.
Drink water regularly
You have to drink 8 cups of water daily, especially before meals, to reduce the feeling of hunger and help in digestion.
Divide meals and avoid glue
You can divide foods into small meals throughout the day instead of eating one fatty meal, and the food should be chewed slowly to improve digestion and feel full.
Practice physical activity
Do not forget the importance of movement during the days of Eid.
You can walk for 30 minutes a day or do light exercises to burn extra calories.
Focus on fibers and vegetables
You can enhance Eid meals by adding fresh or boiled vegetables, to improve digestion.
