During the winter we feel completely different. The problem is not that we don't wear light, airy clothes instead of getting dressed, and some people even envy animals that hibernate. But things are not so simple.
Before falling asleep for the whole winter, the animals follow a certain diet. People often tend to ignore natural laws and look for the easy way. Nutrition preferences are the things we can buy to make easier or some semi-finished product.
It is not the winter weather that is to blame for our skin drying out, our hair losing weight, gaining extra pounds and our health suffering. We need to know how to eat properly this season to feel good.
In winter we must maintain our immunity, have good heat exchange and not dehydrate the cells of our body. We need more calories, but we should not allow the accumulation of excess weight.
Metabolism changes and the production of some hormones slows down. Melatonin decreases due to less light, and this affects our mood and it worsens. Then we reach for something sweet and tasty to feel better and gain weight imperceptibly.
Proper nutrition does not require giving up products such as fats, because they provide us with calories and energy. At this time of year we should also eat animal and vegetable fats. The daily ration should be not less than 30 grams, and one third of them should be animal.
Lack of protein puts people at risk of many infections and common colds. Protein maintains our muscle tone and protects throughout the season.
Products that contain a lot of plant and animal protein are: legumes, soy, cheese, eggs, fish and meat. However, we need to have a measure, because the excess turns into fat.
Dairy products also contain a lot of protein, and are very easily absorbed by the body and protect the flora of the stomach, which depends on our immunity, so they must be present in our diet. The daily requirement is between 70 and 100 grams, depending on physical activity, age, gender and weight.
Vitamins are very important in winter because they protect us from disease. Every day we should eat 5 different vegetables and fruits, and it is best to eat them raw. We can also use frozen, because they preserve vitamins.
Dried fruits also retain all the vitamins and minerals. We need to eat prunes, raisins, pears and apples, and if we mix them with walnuts and honey, we will fill all the body's needs for nutrients.
Many vitamins can be obtained from citrus fruits or sauerkraut. It is enough to eat 150 grams to get the daily ration we need.
