Winter’s chill and slower pace can feel comforting, but it’s also a time when weight gain happens more easily and can affect health. Know the reasons and discover Ayurvedic tips and Patanjali products
to help you lose weight in a healthy way.
Reasons Behind Winter Weight Gain
A major reason would be high-calorie consumption, including eating fatty and dense items like fried food. Comfort eating prompts you to consume calorie-dense food. Lack of physical activities due to the chill and shorter days also doesn’t help. A slow metabolism rate in winter can aid in fat storage. Short days result in less exposure to sun rays; thus, less absorption of Vitamin D.
Ayurveda mentions Kapha Dosha, which helps in amassing, making you lethargic, hungry, and storing fat. Dehydration gets mistaken for hunger and leads to eating calorie-filled food. Sleep troubles, holidays, and other festivities also don’t help. Now, understand Ayurvedic tips to offload the winter kilos with the help of Patanjali products.
