Instead of going on grueling diets and limiting yourself in everything before the New Year’s holidays, it is much easier to adhere to some dietary rules, thanks to which weight loss will not grow. Cold weather requires additional calories to warm up the body, and our active summer activities gradually diminish. How to eat so as not to gain weight in the cold season?
Be sure to have breakfast
Breakfast starts metabolic processes in the body. It is also a good habit to drink a glass of water with lemon on an empty stomach on an empty stomach, this method significantly speeds up the metabolism. If you are not in the habit of eating breakfast, start with one bite and gradually increase the amount of food in the morning. By the way, breakfast is a guarantee that you won’t have to overeat at night.
Eat fractionally
Frequent and fractional meals with competent snacks will help the body absorb and digest food faster, and it will not have time to be deposited on your figure. Autumn and winter nutrition should be as balanced as possible, contain the necessary vitamins and minerals to help the body through this difficult period.
Eat dairy products
A small amount of dairy and fermented milk products triggers the mechanism for losing excess weight. Calcium, phosphorus and magnesium, which are present in these products, trigger this process and accelerate the breakdown of adipose tissue. And a large amount of protein from these foods will strengthen muscles and increase skin elasticity.
“Eat” water
It is the lack of water in the body that can cause a false feeling of hunger and the appearance of extra pounds. Make the most of seasonal fruits and vegetables that are high in water: cucumbers, tomatoes, carrots, eggplants, peaches, as well as beans, chicken, and fish.
Use healthy flour
There are many alternatives to wheat flour: flaxseed, oatmeal, rice, buckwheat. Gluten-free flour will help make baked goods easily digestible, while supplying the body with vitamins and nutrients, as well as fiber – an important component for digestion and removal of toxins from the body.
We will remind, earlier we talked about the fact that Japanese scientists discovered which product leads to weight loss, and also shared recipes for autumn recipes with ginger – delicious and beneficial for the immune system.
