ew Year parties are over.
Time to get back on track.
Nutritionist Niti Desai and
health and wellness coach Kunal
Sharma show us how to detox,
post the party season.
l
EASY EXERCISES:
KUNAL SHARMA ADVICES . . .
l Exercise five times a week.
This should include running;
strength, speed, functionality
and balance workouts;
stretching and meditation.
l Do stair climbing for 20
minutes – two minutes
of climbing with one
minute rest.
l Cycle for 30 minutes – two
minutes on incline and two
minutes on flat surface.
l Run uphill, or half uphill, and
then try to catch your breath
while coming down. Do it for
30 minutes.
l Do spot jogging for two
minutes and rest for three
minutes. Continue doing it for
30 minutes.
l All these are high intensity
workouts which should not
exceed more than 30 minutes.
DO’S AND DON’TS:
l
l
l
l
l
Include good fats, proteins
and low glycemic index carbs
in your meal.
Sleeping and eating at the
right time is very important to
burn fat and heal your body.
Do not take drugs or any
kind of supplements to lose
weight fast.
Do not smoke.
Do not over-train to lose
weight as it will affect your
hormonal balance.
DIET:
NITI DESAI’S MANTRAS . . .
l Too much of alcohol
consumption can dehydrate
the body. So try to drink as
much fluids as possible. Fluids
l
l
can include water, vegetable
juice and sometimes fruit
juices (only if you are not
diabetic as they tend to
increase your weight and take
a toll on your sugar level).
Stop over-eating. Cut back
on calorie intake but do not
skip your meals. In order to
lose weight, people tend to
go on fasting and severe diets
which ultimately reduces the
body’s metabolic rate.
Include protein intake in each
of your meal.
Have a snack between two
meals. Morning snack can
consist of fruit and evening
snack can be chana/ sprout
salad/ sukha bhel/ omelet/
unbuttered popcorn.
