Everything is good in moderation say the experts, but which drink is better? This article takes a different approach to alcohol consumption while dieting.
Most people who choose to drink alcohol while watching their diet will drink in addition to their diet because the drinks they choose won’t actually benefit their bodies. I suggest you change this theory and consume drinks that complement your diet. That way, you can drink alcohol and stay healthy without compromising.
The first thing I want to point out is that calories are not bad! Calories are what make your body work, so trying to determine which drink is healthier by counting calories is a terrible way to find out the answer to this question.
If you are an overweight person trying to lose excess fat, you should exercise and continue to eat healthy foods. You can reduce your daily calorie intake to help cut fast, but you should always exercise while maintaining a healthy diet! If you want to drink some alcohol, it’s better to choose a drink that supplements your diet rather than a drink that contains as few calories or carbohydrates as possible.
Do not try to consume as few calories as possible, replace part of your daily diet with a drink. Include the calories in your drink in your calorie count and cut something else out. Because I guarantee that the drink I am going to tell you about will replace the calories you burned out with the best possible combination of ingredients that will give you all the benefits of your regular diet, with the added benefit of allowing you to drink a little alcohol. .
If you are a healthy and fit person, why would you want to compromise your health for a little alcohol when you don’t have to? You can drink and still fill your body with the good stuff.
Let me start with the worst drinks. Anything creamy means saturated fat, and we definitely don’t want saturated fat. Eggnog is easily the least healthy; closely followed by Irish coffee, so if a healthy drink is important to you, avoid it.
What about the lowest calorie drink? Well, water naturally, but this article is focused on adding a little spice to your life while staying healthy, so I’ll only talk about tasty drinks. A classic favorite is the gin and tonic. The gin is a diuretic, the tonic is said to protect against malaria, and the lime contains vitamin C. But you still get a lot of calories that don’t really do you anything.
Let me highlight this point Why consume useless or bad calories if you you do not have to?
Gin and Tonic is only considered healthier (note I didn’t say healthy, just healthier) if you use Diet Gin, but fake sweeteners are unhealthy regardless of caloric content.
So which do you suggest as the healthiest drink? How about a delicious sangria recipe? Low carb, low fat, lots of vitamins and minerals!
A glass of sangria only contains about 150 calories, but almost all of the calories are good for you. The most obvious are the vitamins and minerals found in orange juice and fruit, then there are the benefits of a good red wine, and lastly the fact that all the ingredients together fill you up with a pretty full range of nutrients that your body needs needs.
If you drink sangria, you are filling your body with an excellent range of vitamins and minerals. Including vitamins A, C and B6, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, folate, pantothenic acid, manganese, copper, calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, some dietary fiber and protein.
You also get a nice variety of amino acids, and some of the nutrients are anti-inflammatory and antioxidant.
Sangria is filling and nutritious, but you also feel full faster, with less. But what you consume is very good for you.
Healthy people watch what they eat; People who are trying to improve their health watch what they eat, but one point that really needs to be made is:
If you’re going to drink alcohol anyway, make every calorie Okay calorie.
The sangria is so easy to make and it tastes fantastic!
