Learn now to maintain a healthy diet during the summer

To ensure quality vacations this summer, you need to be aware not only of what you eat, but also what you drink. It's important to take good care of your body, without forgetting the care that keeps your body healthy. Learn how to keep a healthier food in summer.

Cares with the body

It is ideal that during the holiday period, you avoid consuming food in places that do not have adequate infrastructure and street vendors that pass by selling.

It is known that summer is synonymous with vacation and agitation. At this time, people tend to have fun and go to the beaches and pools a lot. Also, there is no right time to sleep, eat and hydrate the body.

However, you cannot completely neglect your diet, as it is believed that high temperatures can inhibit hunger. With this, physiological changes happen that must be adjusted with good food.

Lack of appetite can have a negative impact if you fast for a long time. The best way to solve the problem is to invest in easily digestible foods, such as greens, fruits, vegetables and

lean meats.

The nutritionist at Check-up HCor (Hospital do Coração), Juliana Dantas, indicates that during the holidays, it is better to avoid the consumption of foods in any environment and that on hotter days, you should drink more liquid than normal, since on hot days there is a greater loss of liquids.

Healthy eating in summer

In the summer, fruits and vegetables should be privileged, as they are great sources of vitamins, minerals and fiber. Consume leafy greens and vegetables. Just be careful with seasoning of the salads. Opt for olive oil, lemon and vinegar.

Opt for whole grains that combine with salads and cold dishes in general. When shopping, choose whole-grain breads, breakfast cereals, rice and pasta over the white kind;

Lean meats are the most suitable, as they are easily digested, avoiding gastric discomfort. In addition, they are considered healthier because they are low in fat.

At dessert time, some more refreshing and healthy suggestions on hot days are, for example, fruit or fruit-based sweets. The most recommended: fruit ice cream on a stick, fruit salads, flans, frozen, smoothies and jellies.
