This is the big weekend – the Super Bowl. Whether or not you are a football fan most of us will be involved with the big game this weekend. Either watching the game, rating the commercials, or just socializing with the game in the background. For many of us this will occur at a party of some sort. Traditionally, a lot of unhealthy food is associated with watching football games. How can you stay on your healthy eating path?
Many of the foods we associate with football parties can be modified with healthier substitutions. Be sure to include vegetable and fruit trays in the appetizer selections. Limit chips and crackers to low-fat options and keep sauces/dips to a minimum. For entrees substitute leaner meats. Drink lots of water and limit soda intake. Focus more on socializing with friends and less on eating.
Once the party is over, if we have had a little too much heavy food, what can we do about that bloated feeling? I find aloe to be a big help. We often think of aloe for treating burns and soothing irritated skin. Well, aloe can have the same benefits internally. Aloe coats the digestive system. It neutralizes stomach acid and helps the healthy bacteria in the intestines work more efficiently to filter out toxins from our system. It also helps the villae that line the intestines to absorb healthy nutrients more efficiently so our bodies absorb the nutrients they need while filtering out the toxins we don’t need.
What are some healthy treats you are going to enjoy during the Super Bowl? Would love to hear from you in the comments below.
