Control Your Cholesterol during the Holidays
Winter is here and ’Tis the season to be jolly.
The Christmas holidays are full of fun get-togethers and of course lots of 
fattening foods which are harmful to you – especially when you are the one 
with high cholesterol.
“Around the holidays, you easily tend to lose yourself. Perhaps this is the 
absolute worst thing you can do when you have high cholesterol, high blood 
pressure, or other heart conditions” – says the best heart specialist in Kolkata. 
The expert also notes – “In a single month you might end up eating all the 
wrong things at once.  It often puts significant stress on your body and heart 
condition.”
While it is easy to consume foods that are high in saturated fats and calories, 
adopting new lifestyle changes can also be very simple when you really care 
for your health. All you need to do is just make a few small changes to ensure 
that you enjoy your holidays without harming your heart health.
So, let’s get started without wasting another second.
Watch the fats and calories in beverages
It’s no surprise that a creamy, full-fat treat is a big NO-NO when you have 
high cholesterol. Therefore, avoid it whenever possible. Keep in mind; 
any after-dinner drink that has whipped-cream or any sugary beverage 
could have both saturated fat and calories which undo the effects of your 
low-cholesterol diet.
Does that mean you have to minus all the drinks even during the 
holidays? Well, you need to consult your concerned 
cardiologist in Kolkata to discuss your holiday beverages. But remember 
to drink only in moderation.
A useful tip – Alter a glass of red wine with a calorie-free non-alcoholic 
beverage like sparkling water.
Eat Smart During the Holidays 
An expert cardiologist will always guide you not to skip your meals. 
Following a healthy-eating guideline doesn’t mean starving. You have 
to eat a healthy breakfast, drink lots of calorie-free liquids, and eat 
light, small but frequent meals when you are at home. Try to opt for 
healthier options even when you are eating outside with your friends 
and family members.
A useful tip – Aren’t you comfortable with the nachos, dipped in 
mayonnaise, your friends are munching on? Carry small boxes of 
snacks, vegetables, fruits, and fatless yogurt.
Plan ahead before a party
Never arrive at an event where holiday treats are present. A yummy 
delight is even tougher to resist when you are starving. Therefore, try 
to have a healthy snack at home before you attend the party. Try 
hummus dip and veggies or a handful of nuts and a glass of tomato 
juice.
Exercise at least 5 days a week
The best cardiologist in Kolkata recommends you to go for 30 minutes 
jogging on your treadmill. Or swim for 30 minutes in your nearest 
pool. If nothing, there are plenty of 30 minutes hit workout videos 
available on YouTube to follow at home. While “sweat it out even 
when you are busy during the holidays” is easier said than done, 
regular exercise can help to limit your overall cholesterol levels.
A useful tip  
if 30 minutes workout is not possible for you to do even on the 
holidays, climb up the stairs every time you are about to hit the 
elevator button.
