How to eat in winter to avoid gaining weight: recommendations from a nutritionist
During the cold season, it is especially important to maintain a healthy lifestyle in order to have a strong immune system.
It is also necessary that the diet is balanced and that the body receives all the necessary vitamins.
At the same time, many people gain weight during the winter months.
This is due to the fact that motivation for physical activity disappears, and you also want to “warm up” with high-calorie and unhealthy food.
Nutritionist Vasilisa Ponomareva told MedikForum in more detail about what to do to avoid extra pounds.
She noted that one should try to stick to a healthy diet and not overeat during the holidays. It is worth noting that many people overdo it with desserts during feasts. Therefore, it is better to give up desserts.
During the holidays, you should give preference to vegetables, healthy salads, fruits, and also do not forget that your diet should always include legumes and whole grains.
It is also important to remember that alcohol leads to weight gain. Therefore, you should give up such drinks if you do not want to face problems with your figure.
The doctor added that in winter one should not forget about physical activity. It is advisable to walk more, do yoga, aerobics. Moreover, training can be done even at home.
