Sugar is vital source of energy and essential for our survival, but not all sugars are same.

Fruits, vegetables and dairy products have Natural Sugar and we don't have to be as concerned about because these foods have good amount of vitamins and minerals which are essential for our body.

Added sugars which are found in processed food are those we concerned about and most of us consume it very frequently.

Eating sugar makes you want to eat more sugar, which makes you more hungry.”

What happens when you overload on Processed Sugar ❓

🛑 Irritability
🛑 Low in energy
🛑 Craving for more sweet
🛑 Digestive issues
🛑 Lack in concentration
🛑 Cavities.

While it’s simply not realistic to avoid all added sugars in your diet, it’s a good idea to read labels, focus and pick healthier alternatives.

"YOU CAN'T ENJOY WEALTH IF YOU ARE NOT IN GOOD HEALTH "

On the occasion of World Health Day let's know what is actual health is.

You must have heard lots of advices from many people about being healthy but healthy does not always mean physical health, it also means mental and social health. Sorting out what that means for you could seem like an overwhelming task. Let's break it down into a few simple, easy-to-remember ways to stay on a healthy path.

🧿 GET ENOUGH SLEEP : Sleep is often low on the list in our nonstop work schedule, but it's a must for good health. If you don't usually wake up feeling refreshed, try sleeping into bed 15 minutes earlier every week until you do.
 
🧿 MOVE MORE SIT LESS:  In this busy world if you do not have time to go for 1 hour walk and do exercise, make it a point to stand up more often and stretch yourself atleast twice or thrice during the day [only for 5-10 minutes] Any movement is better than nothing.
 
🧿 CONTROL YOUR STRESS LEVELS: Everyone has stress; it's how you react to it that matters. Find a way to blow off steam, whether that's through exercise, meditation, or laughing with your loved ones. It sounds easy but very difficult to follow, so take a baby step and discuss with someone what you are trying to accomplish, that will support you to stick to your goals.
 
🧿 DO WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY: If you have a hobby or some activity you enjoy a lot, create time to do it atleast once a week. Also do it with someone, that will make you healthy socially & mentally.
 
🧿 PRACTISE GRATITUDE: which means being thankful for the good things in your life. It's helpful to do this every day, either by thinking about what you are grateful for or writing it down in a journal. Be thankful for big things and also for small things happening in your life.

With Rains Monsoon also invites many disease like, Water borne, Air Borne & Mosquito Borne.

During Monsoon our immune system becomes more weak, our digestive system slows down which lead to bloating, Gas, Acidity & Indigestion.
But you don't need to worry if you keep check on the foods you eat.

🏳️‍🌈 This is the season of gourd vegetables. Add all the gourd veggies like bitter gourd, bottle gourd, sponge gourd, etc. & take a break from leafy vegetables.

🏳️‍🌈 Hydrate yourself with water only instead of aerated beverages & caffeine as they dehydrate body's fluids.

🏳️‍🌈 Milk is hard to digest in monsoon so you can replace it with curd or buttermilk to meet your calcium and protein requirements. Curd is also a probiotic that can kill bad bacteria and keep your gut healthy.

🏳️‍🌈 Include seasonal fruits in your diet like Pears, Peach, Plums, Cherries, Pomegranate. To prevent bloating in monsoon avoid high water content fruits like watermelon, muskmelons, mangoes.

🏳️‍🌈 Avoid raw salads instead boil, stir fry or steam it to kill the germs. Also avoid raw eggs & raw seafood.

🏳️‍🌈 Avoid Fermentation of food because during that process there are chances of increasing bacteria in your food which can affect your gut health.

🏳️‍🌈 Lastly Get enough sleep & Exercise. These are the best immunity booster.

All these tips are very easy to follow during your daily routine. Do follow it and ENJOY MONSOON DISEASE FREE :)
