But sadly, these tempting food items can also make you lethargic. So one needs to have control and not eat these mouth-watering food items. Therefore, one should watch for healthy options, no matter what occasion it is.

Here is how you can be healthy this winter season.

  1. Say good morning to lemon waterThe best way to kick start a morning is to have a glass full of warm water with lemon juice. Drinking this lemon water helps you to lose extra kilos and will speed up your body metabolism. You can also mix a teaspoon of honey with it to enhance the effect.
  2. The king-size breakfast: As we all know breakfast is the most important meal of the day. There are many healthy options like dal or saag, stuffed paratha, steamed idlis, dhoklas, masala oats, overnight oats, flaxseeds, dry fruits like walnuts, almonds and tikki made of maize flour or oats flour or bajra, etc.
