[rvmasalvad]

Importance of a healthy and nutritious diet

You will seldom come across a person who does not like to eat. Nothing can be more satisfying than binging on your favorite cuisine. Though the choice of food may differ from individuals to individuals, most of us live to eat. It is not without reason that food is considered a fuel that gets the body going,

enabling us to carry on with our daily chores. While hot, spicy and fast foods are what most of us crave for, one cannot ignore the health benefits of a balanced and nutritious diet. A diet enriched with the essential nutrients can play a significant role to keep the vital organs of the body fit and healthy.

A nutritious diet plays a pivotal role in maintaining the well-being of the body. From eyes to heart, it takes care of almost everything.

Unhealthy habits to avoid after eating food

There are certain unhealthy habits which when done immediately after eating food will do the body more harm than good. Some of these include:

1.For a proper digestion of food, never take a nap soon after the meal.

2.Taking a shower immediately after having food will also affect the digestion process.

3.Many of us have a habit of drinking tea after a meal. However, it is an unhealthy practice that can interfere with both the digestion of food as well as with the absorption of iron.

4.Eating fruits immediately after a meal will also affect the digestion of food.

5.Smoking after a meal is an extremely unhealthy practice.

6.Consult an expert and plan a healthy diet for yourself to stay fit always,

1) a post lunch nap is good.

5) smoking as such is not good for the health.

>> Fruits: The health benefits of fruits deserve no special mention. Apple, banana, citrus fruits, berries, kiwi, guava, most of the fruits are laden with vitamins and minerals and go a long way to build the immunity and resistance of the body against various diseases and infections.

Since you have posted on DI, fruits should be used judiciously. Definitely Not healthy for diabetics but since the incidence of fatty liver has been increasing and large % of people when sonographied show fatty liver safety of fruits need to be reviewed. Perhaps these people having fatty liver represent either preD or sugar spiking post meals.
