Smart Food Choices to Enjoy Snacks This festive Season Guilt-Free
From Onam to Durga Puja, the upcoming weeks are filled with festivities and the best way to celebrate is to indulge in the fantastic traditional delicacies. But, there is one problem…sugar-coated and deep fried snacks are not exactly healthy. So, here are three tips on how you can take care of your health and still enjoy the endless feasts guilt-free.
Boost Your Immunity
Include protein from lentils, milk, fruits, nuts, seeds, and veggies for healthy fats and antioxidants. Keep buttermilk and coconut water in your diet to stay hydrated.

Control Your Portions
Rather than completely leaving out the flavorsome snacks, control your portions. Swap sugar with jaggery and use healthier oils. Balance sweets with fiber-rich food.
