Summer is here, and with it comes a decrease in appetite and an increased risk of digestive discomfort. Experts offer tips on how to eat fresh and healthy during the summer months, helping you avoid weight gain and maintain a slim figure effortlessly.
It's no secret that everyone has their own "summer diet" habits—some better than others. But why do people often struggle with their appetite in the heat?
Here are some reasons why eating rice might not be ideal in the summer:
1. **High temperatures**: According to Japanese dietitian Tezuka Wenrong in her book *Healthy Eating in Big Mouth*, for every 10-degree Celsius increase in temperature, the body's caloric needs drop by about 70 calories. This means you may feel less hungry during hot weather.
2. **Dehydration**: In air-conditioned environments, people often don't realize they're losing water through sweat, leading to mild dehydration. This can affect your appetite and make you feel sluggish.
3. **Sugary drinks**: Many people reach for sugary beverages when they're thirsty. However, sugar can quickly enter the bloodstream, making you feel full faster and creating a cycle where you don’t eat enough.
**Smart Summer Eating Habits**
With many people struggling to eat enough, it’s easy to fall into unhealthy patterns like choosing light or cold foods. But are these choices actually helping you stay slim?
Let’s explore common summer eating habits and how to make smarter choices:
1. **Cold drinks or ice after meals**: A cup of bubble tea can have up to 240 calories, while a can of green tea has around 185. These drinks may seem refreshing, but they add hidden calories. To burn off just 100 of those calories, you'd need to walk for an hour or climb stairs for 27 minutes. That’s a lot of effort for a small treat.
**Smart choice:** Opt for plain water or mineral water instead. It might feel strange at first, but your taste buds will adjust over time.
2. **Drinking sweet desserts like green bean soup**: While it may seem healthier, these drinks are high in sugar and can lead to weight gain if consumed in excess.
**Smart choice:** If you want to enjoy a bowl of mung bean soup (around 70 calories), reduce your main meal intake by 1/4. You can also mix low-fat milk and add some fruit to keep it nutritious.
3. **Eating sandwiches**: They look light, but many store-bought sandwiches are packed with calories. For example, a chicken leg sandwich can contain over 300 calories. People often end up snacking more later, increasing overall calorie intake.
**Smart choice:** Choose lower-calorie options like grilled chicken or seafood sandwiches from convenience stores. If you have time, make your own with extra veggies like lettuce, cucumber, and tomato for a lighter, fresher option.
4. **Eating too much fruit**: Summer is a time of plenty, but fruits are still high in natural sugars. Overeating them can raise triglyceride levels and affect your health.
**Smart choice:** Mix fruits with vegetables in a salad to balance your intake and reduce the amount of fruit you consume.
5. **Drinking milk as water**: While milk is nutritious, drinking it like water can interfere with calcium absorption due to its high protein content.
**Smart choice:** Limit milk to two or three cups per day, and choose other hydrating options like water or herbal teas.
**Boost Your Appetite the Smart Way**
In addition to smart food choices, certain nutrients can help improve your appetite during the summer:
1. **Drink water before meals**: Have a glass of water an hour before eating. This helps rehydrate your stomach, promotes digestion, and increases your hunger.
2. **Vitamin B1**: Sweating and drinking cold beverages can deplete this essential nutrient, which helps convert carbs into energy. Good sources include whole grains, soybeans, and pork.
3. **Vitamin B2**: Important for energy production, especially during active summer days. Found in dairy products and leafy greens like spinach and broccoli.
4. **Niacin (B3)**: Helps metabolize carbohydrates and supports energy release. Foods like fish, chicken, and milk are great sources.
5. **Vitamin C**: A powerful antioxidant that helps combat stress from the heat. Fresh juices like bitter melon or pineapple juice are great ways to boost your intake.
**Summer is the Perfect Time to Lose Weight**
Summer is not only a season of heat but also an excellent opportunity to focus on your health. With lighter clothing, it's easier to notice and work on body shape. Plus, the warm weather encourages lighter, healthier eating habits that can last all year round.
So take advantage of the season, stay hydrated, eat smart, and enjoy the benefits of a healthier lifestyle!
