![]() |
The renewal of time and the beginning of the season of freshness must be associated with the renewal of behaviors and leaving aside the bad habits. Therefore, let’s take a step forward for the health and institutionalize a healthy habit in our lives this year. According to WEBDA, this habit can be daily attention to the origin of the creation and health and getting assistance from the primordial doctor. You can also find quick solutions for general health recommendations. For example, in order to enhance daily physical activity, you can get off the public transport before arrival at the destination (e.g. a station before) and walk the rest of the route. Avoiding purchase of carbonated beverages and consumption of sekanjabin syrup or lemonade instead can be one of these steps forward. Also, consumption of tea free from artificial flavorings, replacement with herbal tonics, smoking one cigarette a day less for smokers, and consumption of vegetables instead of yogurt, pickles and salad during the meal can be among the alternatives. These steps must be feasible for you to take and not be idealistic and difficult and to do so, you must be determined and persistent. Regarding nuts and snacks as well as fruit, we should consume only one type, and regarding candies, simple candies like chickpea (Nokhodchi) or rice candy are better alternatives. It might be good if you replace candies with fruit providing you are overweight. Besides, skipping lunch and enriching breakfast has always been recommended by traditional medicine practitioners during the New Year’s holidays (Nowruz). If you feel full up, eat every other meal, i.e. when you eat lunch you do not eat dinner. If you are suffering from gastric problems and dyspepsia, try not to drink water and other liquids during the meal. Unlike fried foods, vegetables and fruits, kebab is a good food for you. Among fruits, apples and bananas are proper for such patients. Consumption of nettle tonic and cooked vegetables like carrots, cabbage, olives, barley, celery and fenugreek is proper for diabetics. Patients suffering from hypertension are familiar with grapefruit, but they might not know that its consumption concurrently with blood pressure medications may put them in a state of shock. Therefore, you must be careful, and do not forget to consume hibiscus (Chinese rose) tea. Do not consider the first working day after Nowruz holiday as the beginning of a breathtaking marathon and a year of tiring and boring labor. You need to divide your day into 4 parts: work, rest, prayer, and recreation. You should know that the first three parts are dependent on the last part. Therefore, allocate a few hours a day to recreation and try to have easy and healthy recreations at the weekends so that a merry spirit and a health body become permanent tools flying you towards health and perfection.
