Winter is associated with cold and…flu And respiratory problems. Many may not know that cold weather can cause a variety of digestive system problems, but they can be reduced or even avoided. In this report, we learn about the importance of maintaining a healthy stomach during the winter, according to the Times of India website.
Tips for maintaining the health of your stomach and digestive system in winter
Eating too much fast food and lack of water in the body
The winter season is associated with eating too much food and feeling hungry. Excessive eating slows down the digestion process, causes bloating, and harms our digestive health. As temperatures drop, we drink less water and insufficient hydration in the body, which leads to constipation.
To prevent constipation and dehydration in winter, you must drink sufficient amounts of water, eat fresh vegetables, fruits, and whole grains, and avoid foods that contain a lot of spices.
Reduce stress and improve sleep
Good sleep is necessary to maintain stomach health, because lack of sleep leads to increased levels of stress and anxiety, intense desire to eat unhealthy food, and digestive system problems.
Eat right
Maintain a balanced diet by including winter vegetables rich in vitamin C, such as sweet potatoes, squash, carrots and beets, and include green leafy vegetables such as kale and spinach to regulate bowel movements and promote digestion.
Add digestive-friendly herbs and spices such as cardamom, nutmeg, turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves to your meals and warm drinks in moderation.
Include probiotics in your diet to maintain a healthy balance of gut bacteria.
Avoid fast and fatty foods and stay hydrated
Reduce your intake of sugar and processed foods to maintain the balance of good bacteria in your gut and prevent stomach problems. Fight winter hydration by drinking enough water to flush toxins from your body and support your immune system.
