Winter Tips to Improve Your Diet

There are many other aspects that can help you improve your diet during this season:
Our body works more slowly in winter and therefore requires less heavy food. It should also be consumed as dinner before 8 pm.
If you must take antibiotics because of a respiratory infection, seek to strengthen the bacterial flora (beneficial microorganisms that live in the intestines) with yogurt and fresh fruit.
Maintain regular intake of water (2 liters a day). You may drink tea or tea to make it.
It is convenient consumption of honey to replace sugar as it provides energy and health-enhancing substances in the airways.
To improve the intake of vitamin A, which helps protect the skin from the cold and prevents cracking of the lips, including milk, cheese, liver and eggs?
The shortage of sunlight decreases the incorporation of vitamin D the body; hence it is advisable to add fatty fish (sardine, tuna, salmon) to offset a possible shortfall.
As for beef, pork, lamb or other, can be consumed, preferably, prepared on the grill and choosing lean cuts (fat).
Potatoes are a suitable food for the season, however, it is advisable to consume cooked or baked rather than fried or pureed, not to add calories.
No abuse of chocolate, nougat, marzipan or other desserts of the season because their calorie content is high. A good option to replace them is the incorporation of nuts (peanut, almond, walnut, hazelnut) and dried (dates, figs, apple, pear), because they provide fiber and nutrients.
It is also valid to conclude the meal with fresh juice of any citrus, trying not to take more than 15 minutes after being obtained; it loses much of its vitamin properties.

We hope these tips are useful and help prevent diseases that are so common this time of year.
