Whatever diet plan you take up, you must make sure that you adopt a holistic approach towards fitness, emphasizing on a healthy lifestyle rather than going on diets.
As Dr. Swarupa Kakani , Chief Nutritionist, Sagar Hospitals, observes, "Housewives, who are touching 40, need to take important care of their eating habits. This is the time when their metabolism dips by about 1%-2%. A restricted diet is something that they must ensure but this does not mean portion control or drinking just a cup of tea for breakfast".
She goes on to say, "Ditching refined foods, fatty and fried foods is necessary. They must concentrate on having servings of three-four vegetables a day and fruits. This will help them get enough amount of nutrients like vitamins and minerals that also aid in boosting the immunity."
