During this festive period, I believe most of us have had a few indulging meals. Thus, leading to overeating. Festive foods such as roast turkey, or any poultry with skin, stolen cakes, cookies, pastries, salted nuts and seeds and processed meat contains saturated fats, trans fat. You may not have noticed, but we have intake too much salt for our daily consumption during the festive season.
Here are some dietary tips to take care of your health POST CHRISTMAS
To cut saturated fats:
- Trim off fat and skin from poultry.
- Opt for fresh, lean meat, poultry without skin and fish
- Intake take lesser processed meat and food cooked with coconut milk and palm oil.
Cross out trans fat:
- Down-size your serving of cookies, cakes and pastries.
- Look for trans fat-free biscuits and magerine
- Go for spreads made from avocado, 100% peanut buter ( low salt ) if possible, no salt and non-dairy spreads made from olive oil.
Reduce you salt intake
- Chose unsalted nuts and seeds.
- Add less salty and sauces to dishes. have a smaller portion if you are eating out.
HERES TO HEALTHY EATING!
CHEERS!
