Delhi-based senior nutritionist Dr Anu Aggarwal says you can eat chivda mixed with moong dal chilla or paneer bhurji. If you want, you can eat delicious laddus with a glass of milk. Almonds, walnuts or your favorite nuts can be added to these laddus.

To avoid this, plan frequent meals. Like you could eat something between breakfast and lunch. This will keep you from being too hungry until lunchtime. During this period, you can eat any fruit as a snack. It can be an apple, a banana, a pomegranate, anything.
Plan lunch and dinner smartly: Usually during Diwali, lunch or dinner is done with family and friends. Some of the dishes served here contain very high calories. In such a situation, you can start the meal with salad. After that, eat something rich in protein like dal or cheese with roti or rice. Remember to take curd or buttermilk with food. It is a good source of probiotics. With its help it will be easier to digest food.
Take care of your hydration
During Diwali, people often stay up late at night and party. Staying up late at night and eating too many sugary or fatty foods can cause dehydration. This can cause acidity problems and headaches. So make sure that during this time you have a water bottle with you and continue to drink water throughout the day. Drink at least 8 to 10 glasses of water throughout the day.
Take care of your gut health: Our daily routine often changes completely during Diwali celebrations. Additionally, during this time we eat foods that are not usually part of our plate. It contains so much flour, sugar and fat that it can harm gut health.
The solution to this problem lies in foods rich in fiber. Include as many salads and fruits as possible in your diet. Drink 1 glass of buttermilk with or between meals. Start your day with a glass of lemon water or amla water. This will not cause acidity and will also aid digestion.
Prepare sweets and dishes at home A few days before Diwali, news about adulterated sweets and khoya starts appearing in the newspapers. There are several reasons for this:
In the month of October-November, the milk production of animals decreases. Livestock farming reduces the sale of milk to make sweets at home. The demand for milk for making sweets is increasing in the market. many bend.
Therefore, when there is no supply, confectioners begin to adulterate. To increase the amount of sweets and reduce the cost, a lot of sugar is also added.
This can be extremely harmful to our health. So it is better that you prepare treats and meals at home.
Prepare healthy foods like this. We all know that no matter how much we restrain ourselves during Diwali, some foods end up being superfluous. Therefore, we can already add such adulteration to our diet, which will make it healthier.
We can mix barley and millet flour with wheat flour at home. Every time you drink water, try adding lemon to it. Give the same water to others to drink. This will maintain the supply of minerals as well as water and gut health will also improve.
