6 Tips to Keep Your Body Scales Stable After Eating the Eid Menu

JAKARTA – Eid is the most eagerly awaited time. Not only to stay in touch with relatives, but also to eat various kinds of typical Eid food menus.

Foods such as chicken opor, ketupat vegetables, liver fried chili sauce, and rendang often make you crazy when you eat them. Especially if eaten together with your beloved family.

Not to mention eating various Eid snacks and cakes. If you keep going crazy, then you have to be prepared to face increasing numbers on the scale.

Therefore, several special strategies are needed to overcome feelings of confusion when eating Eid food. Curious? Come on, see the full review, as reported by EMC Health Care, Thursday (11/4/2024).

1. Reduce sugar consumption

Cakes and sweet drinks do look tempting on Eid. However, you should reduce your consumption of excess sweet food or drinks. Because this can increase the risk of obesity, diabetes and heart disease

2. Don’t Skip Breakfast

No matter how busy you are during Eid, you should still make time for breakfast. The reason is, breakfast can prevent the body from feeling excessively hungry. So that when you have lunch, you don’t go crazy about eating portions.

3. Pay attention to portion sizes

If there are many Eid menus, you can try them all but in small portion sizes. This can avoid overeating which can make the stomach uncomfortable and cause excess weight gain. You should also chew your food slowly so that your body can digest it completely.

4. Drink Enough Water

Body fluid intake is also no less important to pay attention to while celebrating Eid. Often people forget to drink water just because they prefer to drink sweet drinks. Water also helps remove toxins from the body and maintain fluid balance in the body.

5. Consume fiber from vegetables and fruit

Apart from being rich in vitamins, fruit and vegetables also contain fiber which is good for health and can provide sufficient fiber intake for the body. Fruit and vegetables can increase the body’s immunity and improve the digestive system.

6. Exercise regularly

Even though it’s Eid doesn’t mean you can skip sports. You can still do exercise regularly in the afternoon, after gathering with relatives. You can walk or run every day for 30 minutes. By exercising regularly, the body becomes fit even though during Eid the portions of food are larger than usual.
