Acıbadem Maslak Hospital Nutrition and Diet Specialist Fatma Turanlı talked about the nutrition rules you should pay attention to at the New Year's table; made important recommendations and warnings.
Starting your dinner with soup will help you eat less and slowly, thus preventing possible stomach complaints. Nutrition and Diet Specialist Fatma Turanlı stated that it is also possible to have a lower calorie diet and said, “Vegetable dishes with olive oil, which are the crown of our tables, are among the indispensables of the New Year's tables. Having several kinds of vegetables with olive oil on your table on New Year's Eve supports both visual satiety and easy satiety of our stomach. In addition, the pulp of winter vegetables such as leeks, cabbage and celery play an important role in our intestinal health. said.
Nutrition and Diet Specialist Fatma Turanlı said that while preparing dinner for a healthy New Year's Eve, attention should be paid to the cooking method you will use. Preferring cooking methods such as steaming, in the oven or on the grill prevents the occurrence of stomach ailments as they provide more comfortable digestion as well as reduce the calorie content of the meals. Frying meat dishes such as chicken and turkey and potatoes in the oven, and preparing vegetables by grilling them in a pan will reduce the calorie content of the meals considerably.” he said.
Be careful not to go hungry all day, thinking that you will eat too much in the evening. It is very important to start the day with a light breakfast, and to consume vegetables or salad-style foods with olive oil for lunch. Nutrition and Diet Specialist Fatma Turanlı said, “When you sit down to eat on an empty stomach, you run the risk of eating too much food quickly, considering that there will be plenty of food on the table.
While preparing your plate, it is also important to take a small amount of the food on the table and consume a salad with it. Because the high content of salad pulp contributes to the functioning of the intestines. While the salad, which has a low calorie content, prevents weight gain, it can support the feeling of satiety faster with its digestible and indigestible pulp. In addition to these, the antioxidant elements contained in colorful vegetables are also effective in protecting against infections that are very common today. he said.
Nutrition and Diet Specialist Turanlı, who says take care to make some changes in order to reduce the calorie and fat content of the meals, said, “For example, you can prefer yogurt instead of mayonnaise in the appetizers and salads you will prepare. Yogurt is an extremely beneficial food with its flavor and the minerals and vitamins it contains, and it contains lower calories when compared to mayonnaise. It is also useful to pay attention to the low-fat cheeses that you will have on the table. Desserts with syrup and wet cakes contain quite a lot of calories and fat. When you add these sweets to the already consumed meals, the amount of calories and fat you will get at night is about 2 times. If you are going to consume desserts, choosing desserts with fresh fruit or light milk will ensure that the calorie increase is lower.
Water is an essential drink for the regular functioning of our body and for a healthy digestion. Nutrition and Diet Specialist Fatma Turanlı stated that you should pay attention to drinking water at the New Year's table, as always, and said, “Drinking enough water will make you spend the night more comfortably and wake up better in the morning. In addition, water does not contain calories and helps to create a feeling of satiety. Drinking plenty of water reduces the intensity of alcohol and the amount of alcohol consumed. A glass of wine averages between 110-150 calories. It can be preferred because its calorie content is not very high. If you are worried about gaining weight, it would be appropriate to limit the amount of alcoholic beverages to 2-3 glasses.” used the phrases.
