Nutritious food is very important for our body.Today’s runaway life and irregular routines are enough to invite diseases. In such a situation, it is important that you take the right and nutritious diet regularly. NBT discussed with nutritionist Dr. Nupur Krishnan about the food required for a healthy body. Here is the key part of the conversation
Don’t skip breakfast: Breakfast is necessary at the beginning of the day, but many people leave the house in a hurry without having breakfast. It is good to have light things like breakfast, poha, oatmeal, idli. It is light in digestion and is rich in many nutrients.This gives your body energy, as well as makes muscles and bones strong. It also happens that people eat anything in the name of breakfast. Keep in mind that by doing this you do not get a balanced shape, which causes problems like obesity, weakness etc.
Nutrition alone is not enough: Eating nutrition is very important for the body, but it does not mean that only by eating it can you be healthy. Lifestyle changes along with nutritious diet are very important for a healthy life. For a healthy life, 30 percent exercise, 30 percent lifestyle and 40 percent healthy eating. Without one, the other is affected, so keep in mind that apart from nutrition, other things are also necessary for the body.
Chewing food is important: Our eating habits are largely responsible for many problems like flatulence, indigestion, acidity. Chewing food is very important. By doing this, a type of enzyme is released from our salivary glands while eating, which helps in digesting food. So do not be in a hurry while eating and chew and eat.
If there is less water then there will be problem every time: It is common to reduce the amount of water in the body in summer. Humidity and heat cause a lot of potassium to come out of our body in the form of sweat. Due to the low amount of potassium in the body, there is a problem of cramping in the legs. Water should be taken regularly to avoid the problem. Drink 3-4 liters of water daily, use fruits that have more water, such as fruits like melon, watermelon, orange. To avoid lack of water, carry a bottle of water in the bag, in which lemon can also be used. If you get cucumber, keep eating from time to time.
Budgeted ‘Dryfruits’: Dryfruits are very good for the body, although sometimes people are unable to eat them due to being out of the budget. In this case, roasted gram, groundnut, etc. can be used as their substitute.
Note on cholesterol: People start avoiding oil first when it comes to cholesterol. Like everything else, oil is also very important for the body.In such a situation, if you have cholesterol problem, do not stop the oil immediately, yes control its use.
