Tips for Maintaining Nutrition During Eid !!

Hello Hermina Friends

Eid Al-Fitr or often called Lebaran is the moment most eagerly awaited by Indonesian people. Many activities are carried out during Eid, such as gathering with family and friends, visiting family graves, and eating together. However, often the food served during Eid has high sugar, fat, and salt content, so it can hurt the health of the body. Therefore, it is important to maintain nutrition during Eid to stay healthy and fit.

Here are some tips on maintaining nutrition during Eid:

1. Consume a balanced portion of food

Excessive eating portions can make the body feel tired and uncomfortable. Therefore, try to manage your meal portions properly. It is better to consume food in sufficient portions, but not too much. Don't forget to eat vegetables and fruit as a source of fiber and vitamins that are important for the body.    The portions and quality of food are still the same as during fasting.

        2. Choose healthy foods

Reduce foods that contain sugar, fat, salt, and other additives. Increase consumption of vegetables and fruit as a source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Choose healthier foods, such as vegetables, fruits, fish, and lean meats. In addition, avoid foods that are fried or high in fat, because they can cause digestive problems and make the body feel uncomfortable.

        3. Drink lots of water
Drinking water is the best way to keep the body hydrated. No need to wait for thirst to start drinking water. Consume enough water during Eid, and avoid drinks that contain high sugar such as soft drinks or syrup.

       4. Avoid foods that contain MSG
Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is a food additive that is often used to add flavor to food. However, MSG can cause headaches, nausea, and fatigue in some people. Therefore, you should avoid foods that contain MSG, and choose more natural foods.

       5. Exercise regularly
During Eid, we tend to be less active because we spend more time with our family. However, regular exercise is very important to maintain a healthy body. Try taking time to go for a walk or run in the morning, or take part in a sporting activity with family or friends. Besides that, you can also sunbathe in the morning.

      6. Don't forget to get enough rest
Apart from food and exercise, adequate rest is also very important to maintain a healthy body. Make sure you sleep for 7-8 hours every night to ensure your body gets enough rest.

Maintaining nutrition during Eid can be a challenge, with the tips above hopefully can help you maintain a healthy body.
