Dietitian Duygu Çiçek gave important information about the subject. With the summer heat, longer days and accelerating pace, there are many changes in our diet, meal times, and the foods we consume. And when summer parties, beach parties and night entertainments are added to these, our nutrition deteriorates considerably. Summer is a risky period in terms of nutrition. For this reason, we need to adapt our diet to healthy eating principles as soon as possible. Some mistakes made in the summer months can cause weight gain.
When I wake up in the morning, I don't want to eat anything
As a result of night snacks or late meals, you may not feel hungry when you wake up in the morning and you may not want to have breakfast. But this will slow down your metabolism quite a bit, your body will save itself and spend minimum energy because you starve yourself for a long time. For this reason, care should be taken to have a snack breakfast, even if it is in the form of yogurt + fruit + oats or coffee with milk + fruit.
I didn't eat anything all day, it was night, I cleaned and swept
The factors that cause this error are other nutritional mistakes you have made during the day. If you have completed the day with very little food, it is natural to attack the food with the fall of the evening coolness. To prevent this error, eat little and often throughout the day. The most ideal meal order varies according to the person and is 3 main and 3 snacks. If you pay attention to 2-3 hours between your meals and not to stay hungry longer than 4 hours during the day, you will not succumb to your appetite at dinner.
Trying shock diets to get a fit body
Many people turn to diets that promise quick results, regardless of the source, in order to reach the weight they want when the summer months come. However, such diets can cause severe headache, dizziness, and diarrhea by disrupting your intestinal flora. Instead, try eating right and healthy to feel energized and good.
I'm always thirsty, I drink soda all day
It is the most common nutritional mistake made by people who do not have the habit of drinking water in the summer. Even though a person who behaves this way thinks that he is getting enough fluid in his body, it actually dehydrates his body. No drink will replace water no matter what you drink during the day. Acidic and caffeinated drinks damage the water reserve in your body. For this reason, you should drink water when you are overwhelmed by the heat. If you don't like to drink water, you can choose to add ice or add 1-2 drops of lemon juice.
I only consume ice cream all day
It's hard to stop in front of ice cream, which is the funniest dessert of summer. When hot weather is added to it, you may prefer to eat ice cream instead of eating. Do not forget that ice cream is a dessert of pleasure. It is your most natural right to eat ice cream in summer, but it is not possible to eat ice cream all summer long. It is okay to consume 1–2 balls of ice cream made from fresh milk in your normal diet.
I don't want to eat meat/chicken
You may not want to eat meat because of your appetite, which is cut off by the summer heat. However, not taking protein for a long time can lead to nutritional deficiencies. The richest source of iron mineral is meat products. Apart from that, vitamin B12 is only found in foods of animal origin. There can be no food as good as grilled fish by the sea. If you cannot consume meat during the day, try consuming grilled fish in the evening.
