It’s not yet late to make a new year's resolutions
this year. Thanks to Jeunesse and Ms. Cheshire Que a Dietitian-Nutritionist
shares 5 strategies to help us become healthy and fit this year.
1. Catch up on your 8-hour
sleep. By sleeping eight hours a
day, you are doing yourself a favor. Not to mention, a world of good to your
mood, memory, and immune system! Lack of sleep also contributes to weight gain
and obesity that wrecks your monthly period.
2. Go easy on sweets and fried
food. You’ve had too much during the holidays and now
is the time to detox. Balance out your calorie intake and minimize the junk foods
in your life, a.k.a fried, sweet, and salty. Excessive amounts make you cramp,
bloat, and may cause a sudden rise and fall on your sugar levels thus affecting
your mood as well.
3. Eat fresh. Fruits and vegetables cleanse the digestive
system, clear the skin, and promote weight loss. Regular bowel movement especially
during your red days keep you light and less bloated. And because they’re high
in fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants, it helps to increase your satiety, making
you feel full in just a few, smaller servings! Forget drastic and fad diets,
stock up on these veggies instead, which are highly recommended by Dietitian-Nutritionist
Cheshire Que:
a. Ampalaya - rich in iron and has insulin-like properties that help control blood glucose
b. Malunggay and other dark, leafy veggies – also rich in iron which boosts and promotes good mood & combats fatigue
c. Carrots – high in Vitamin A for a healthy, glowing skin
d. Kangkong or Chinese Spinach – packed with high amount of calcium for stronger bones
e. Chayote – full of fiber that promotes digestive health and folate for DNA synthesis and healthy blood cells
If you are serious about infusing your food with nutrient-dense ingredients, keeping a food journal is a great way to set up your meal plan to success. That way, it encourages you to consume fewer calories and provide the motivation that you need every single day!
4. Take a multivitamin
supplement if your intake of nutrient-rich foods is inadequate. Minimizing salty and sweet food you badly crave does
not mean you become instantly healthy. The absence of nutritious foods is a red
flag that should be addressed too. An iron supplement may help prevent iron deficiency anemia
for those with heavy menstrual flow. Take multivitamins that have all the
necessary vitamins including calcium for strong bones and folate for a healthy
heart and sound mind.
5. Move. Move. Move. All that daily inactivity is
the biggest health hazard you’re up against. Desk jobs, long commutes, and too
much Facebook and Netflix –is about as fattening as a steady diet of bacon and
hotdogs. Here are some ways to stand up and just go: walk around your home
while on the phone, dance while cooking, wash your car instead of taking it to
the car wash, grab a coffee “to go” and walk as you sip! Mindful movement can
offset all the sitting you can’t avoid and may help you to burn more calories a
day.
And if you find yourself constantly
using your period as an excuse to not go to the gym, take it from restaurateur
and blogger Dianne Salazar. She said, “That time of the month doesn’t need to
hinder you from physical activities like working out. It actually helps you
feel less sluggish and boosts your mood. I do CrossFit almost everyday even
when I’m on my period and I need not worry about leaks and discomfort, thanks
to Jeunesse Anion All Night Pad! It gives me maximum protection even when I
lift heavy weights.”
So Lovelies, your period is a gift and it should not stop you from
reaching your fitness goals. Use quality sanitary pads to make sure you are
worry-free and fully protected from leaks. By changing your pad every four to
five hours, it helps to ward off bacterial growth that causes odor. With
Jeunesse Anion pads, you don’t have to think about leaks and stains as its seven
layers of powerful protection made of dirt-free
and sterilized virgin pulp is gentle on skin and holds a superior amount of
liquid, so nothing can stop you during that time of the month.
Jeunesse Anion is available at Watsons, Mercury
Drug Stores, and other leading supermarkets and groceries nationwide, they also offers ultra day non-wing, ultra day pad, ultra night pad, all-night
pad, and panty liner to help every woman to go through their period with ease
