How Fruits Keep Health In Check During Festivals

The festive cheer is in the air and while some parts of the country are already celebrating, Delhi will kick-start officially on Dussera day. Festivals are times for family gatherings, friendly bonhomie, gift exchanges and food! The fried and sweetened savories will be ruling our plates and come what may, the weight woes will return. We say it is not wise to fret too much over increasing waistlines during festivals because these are good times and one must make the most of them.

However, keeping health in check is not all that bad especially as when festivals end and reality beckons we are left with bodies we do not want to live in. 

Here are the ways fruits prove to be real champions when it comes to healthy eating during festivals:

1)      They kill the sugar craving: Fruits have ample sugar content in them hence they are best supplements for all the Jalebis, Rasgullas and Khoya sweets that you are eyeing. We don’t mean that you should completely shun sweets but if you have already had two, maybe popping a sweet fruit like strawberry or a slice of orange will be better.

2)      Aid digestion: Fibrous fruits like banana, apple, raspberry and mango are miracle foods as they keep your body systems in check. They will help you digest all the fatty foods you are otherwise consuming and keep you energized all the time. Fruits have anti-oxidants, vitamins and minerals which are all repairing your body as non-nutritious food invades it during festivals.

3)      They take care of your skin: Don’t we already know the benefits of fruits for our skin? Oil and fat can take away the suppleness of your skin during festivals. If you add fruits in your daily diet, your skin will replenish the nutrients faster. This helps as you continue to look radiant when you dress up in the festive finery.

4)      They fill you up: If you eat a bowl of fruits just before sitting down for a Poori-Bhaaji dinner, you already feel full and will eat at least two Pooris less! So just before heading out to your favorite Aunt’s Diwali Dinner, fill your tummy with health and avoid over stuffing yourself with empty calories.

Wait no longer. Make fruits a part of your daily routine. The ease of having them delivered at your desk is what Falhari offers and you do not even have to think about which fruit to eat when. You can just sit back and relax while gorging on all the festive food as Falhari’s health portions will provide you the healthy fodder that will keep your fitness goals intact.
