Top 10 Foods To Avoid This Christmas: How To Stay Healthy In This Christmas Season
Christmas is celebrated throughout the world and it is graced by various activities from which eating and drinking are not excluded.
This is a special occasion for "some Christians". To them, they believe that Jesus Christ was born on that day.
During Christmas, Christians do lots of joyful activities and make merry especially, by eating and drinking. They eat lots of meat, fatty foods, alcohol, etc on that day which greatly turns to affect their general well-being after the occasion. I have observed that after Christmas, the number of patients who comes to the hospital for treatment increase. Do you know why? Read below to be in the know.

How To Stay Healthy In This Christmas Season
Do I sound funny? I know by now you are asking yourself: but what should I eat during this Christmas season?
In order to stay healthy during and after this Christmas season follow the guidelines below:
1. Eat healthily - by eating healthy, I mean you should incorporate lots of fruits and vegetables into your diet.
2. Eat brown sugar instead of white sugar or to avoid any complications, eat honey instead
3. I know lots of people would resort to drinking alcohol in this season but hey, it will affect you afterward. So get your fruit and vegetable juice and sip. This will help you stay fit.
4. Overeating with lead to being overweight or obese. So eat small portions of food with vegetable salad to keep your weight in shape.
5. Drink lots of water because this Christmas comes with the dry season, especially in Africa. So hydrate yourself with water. 5 - 6 liters a day would not be a bad idea.
Do your best to stay healthy this Christmas season. Don't just eat whatever you find, know the nutrients you are going to get from the food before you eat.
Do I sound funny? Yes, to you but hey that's the truth.
Stay healthy. I wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year.
