5 Day Post-Diwali Diet To Shed Those Extra Kilos

by True Elements 17 Nov 2023

Diwali, the Festival of Lights, is incomplete without tasty food and delicacies. But indulgences in festive foods don’t go without the guilt.

So, here we are, bringing you diet tips post-Diwali to shed those extra kilos gained during celebrations.

 

Master Cleanse the Body:

  • Detoxification gets rid of toxins from your body through proper dietary choices.
  • Best Detox foods include Fresh vegetable salads, Infused water with Lemon, Cinnamon, Turmeric, Basil, Ginger, Wheatgrass powder, Apple cider vinegar, Ajwain, Black jeera and Green smoothies.

Add More Protein:

  • Protein has been shown to promote satiety, help maintain lean body mass, and reduce the efficiency of storing extra calories as body fat, which eventually helps with weight loss.
  • Foods such as Lean meat, Egg, Paneer, Mushroom, True Elements 7 in-1 Seed mix, True Elements Baked Nuts, True Elements Quinoa, True Elements Almond Flour etc, are rich sources of protein.

Include Good Fibre:

  • Fibre helps improve the gut microbiome, is anti-inflammatory, and reduces appetite, which helps reduce cravings that influence weight loss.
  • Foods like whole grains, fruits, vegetables, True Elements Rolled Oats, True Elements Daily Mix, True Elements Mixed Seeds etc, are rich in fibre.

Restrict Sugar Intake:

  • As festive days are loaded with desi sweets and crunchy fried snacks, cutting down on sugars aids weight loss and heart disease, among other health benefits.
  • Guilt-free snacks like True Elements Crunchy Minis Chocolate, True Elements Namkeen Mix etc can be taken during cravings.

Ensure Physical Activity:

  • Physical activity increases metabolism and people's total energy expenditure and helps to decrease excess fat deposition in the body.
  • After the festive season, it can be a little challenging for everyone to get back on track, but you must take care of your body and develop a clear timetable for exercise.
