Dr. Naaznin Husein On Cheating Your Way To Healthy Weight

Cheating for Healthy Weight

Dr Naazin Husein, a well-known dietician, nutritionist, wellness and yoga expert talks to PharmEasy about cheating your way to healthy body weight. She believes that having small meals in between the three main meals helps to keep the metabolism going and keeps the hunger pangs at bay. They help to support the main diet.

Best Small Meal Options

Fruits, nuts, roasted chana, flaxseeds, sunflower seeds, buttermilk, and yoghurt are great small meal options. They blunt your appetite and prevent you from overeating. Another good choice is coconut water. Including these supplements in your diet helps to create a balance by replenishing the body with micronutrients.Also Read: Drinking Water to Weight Loss – How Does it Help?

Drink Green Tea

According to Dr Naazin, ideally, the meal should be washed down with a warm drink like a glass of hot water or even some green tea to wash away the excess fat and aid digestion. She warns that green tea increases appetite so it must always be had after a meal. Also, if you want to flavour your yoghurt, ensure that you stay away from the store-bought ones as each has about 12gms of added sugar in it. You could experiment with fruits on your own to enjoy what you like. She suggests spinach and pomegranate raita is a great option.Also Read: 4 Health Benefits of Green TeaWatch the video for more tips and tricks to adopt a healthy lifestyle.Disclaimer: The information provided here is for educational/awareness purposes only and is not intended to be a substitute for medical treatment by a healthcare professional and should not be relied upon to diagnose or treat any medical condition.
