1. Drink lots of water, nimbu pani, soups, and vegetable juice but no fruit juices:
While people love to give their diet and routine gym life a break during these holidays, many also suffer severe diseases and ailments because of the same habit. Drinking water constantly has a lot of health benefits. Drinking liquids like water, nimbu pani, soup, and vegetable juices can dilute glucose concentration in your blood stream hence maintaining your body's sugar level. It can also prevent unnecessary weight gain.
2. Avoid smoking and alcohol:
Nowadays, almost every person is health-conscious. Post-COVID-19, people have become more attentive and concerned towards their health. If you like maintaining a constant tab on your sugar level during New Years. You should totally avoid consuming any alcoholic beverage or smoking. Alcohol has excess sugar concentration that can cause severe health issues.
3. Eat only a single desert that has lesser calories:
We understand that the holiday season starting from Christmas and ending on New Years, is the perfect time for enjoying sweets. Especially for health freaks and diet-conscious people who do not eat anything sweet for almost the entire year. But, unfortunately, it is true that eating a lot of sweets and delicacies can skyrocket your sugar levels. It is best to keep tabs on your sugar consumption during the New Year holidays. You should try eating only one dessert in an entire day with managed quantity and sugar content. Cakes without icing or made with gur or date sugar can be a better option.
