Bhai Dooj is celebrated every year on the second day of Shukla Paksha of the month of Kartik and usually falls two days after Diwali, the festival of lights and a day after Govardhan Puja.
The festival celebrates the loving and sacred bond between a brother and a sister.
During Bhai Dooj, your brother and you, will tend to go overboard on sweets and snacks. This, can lead to weight gain.
So, don't worry, we are here with a few easy tips to follow.
Hydration is key to your well-being. Load yourself up with water as staying hydrated can make you feel full.
You must make sure that you eat less and go for a small plate.
People who are cooking and trying new recipes during the Diwali festivities must use sugar alternatives instead of unhealthy refined sugar.
Deep-fried foods are something we tend to overindulge in and there are two things we should look into. One, over-eating these foods and secondly, while cooking if you are reheating or reusing the same oil, the trans-fat content increases.
Do not forget your dietary restraints during the festival. White rice does no harm to diabetes patients if consumed moderately.
