Let's get a little more knowledge and get a little healthier every day.
During the Spring Festival, every family is immersed in the atmosphere of reunion and festivities, and food and delicacies are an indispensable part. However, "every festive season to gain three pounds", many people will worry about their weight after enjoying a hearty meal.
Today, I will give you a few tips so that you can enjoy the food while maintaining a good figure!
1.Meals are less oil and less salt, and more "steamed" is chosen
Deep-fried and barbecued meals made by high-temperature cooking methods are the enemy of our body. Therefore, we try to choose low-temperature cooking methods such as steaming and boiling for meals, which can reduce the fat and salt content of food.
For example, steamed fish, boiled vegetables, etc. are very healthy choices. This preserves the original flavor of the food and avoids excessive calorie intake.
2.Eat something "low-calorie" before starting a meal
During the Spring Festival dinner, in the face of a table of food, we are often easy to lose control and accidentally eat too much. In order to avoid this, we can eat some low-calorie foods before starting a meal, such as eating some cucumbers, tomatoes, or drinking some low-fat milk, sugar-free soy milk, etc.
By feeling a little more satiety before a meal, you can reduce your food intake during the main meal.
3.Eat less "red meat" and more "white meat".
If you want to "eat meat without growing meat", it is very important to choose what meat to eat. Red meat, such as pork, beef, lamb, etc., is relatively high in fat; White meat, i.e. shrimp, fish, and skinless chicken and duck, is high in protein and low in fat.
Therefore, during the Spring Festival, we can appropriately reduce the intake of red meat and increase the proportion of white meat. This will satisfy our need for meat and keep us in shape.
4.You can drink some tea and eat some fruit after the meal
The Spring Festival dinner will be somewhat greasy and full. At this time, we can drink some tea or eat some fruit to help digestion and relieve greasyness.
Tea polyphenols and other ingredients contained in tea help promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and secretion of digestive juices; And the vitamins and dietary fiber rich in fruits can also help us digest food better.
In addition to deliberate adjustments in diet, there are also "details" to pay attention to in terms of lifestyle. We can do housework when we are at home; Go out for a walk and go shopping with family and friends, which can increase calorie consumption.
In any case, the Chinese New Year dinner is all about reunion and joy, as long as we pay attention to our diet and maintain a healthy lifestyle, we can maintain a healthy body during the Spring Festival.
I hope these tips can help you spend a healthy and happy Spring Festival!
