Feasting During The Advent Season Attention Calorie Trap!
Christmas markets are an absolute highlight during the advent period
. Exploring the lights and alluring scents of the numerous stands together with family and friends is for many people an inevitable Christmas tradition. But the sweet and hearty delicacies often make us eat too much. The effects of the feasting can be seen relatively quickly on the weight scale. But with a higher awareness of the foods calorie contents and the bodys energy consumption, people can avoid gaining extra pounds during Christmas.
Sweet or hearty Calorie traps at the Christmas market
The typical mix of sweet and hearty scents at a Christmas market makes even usually-disciplined dieters weak. Whether pancakes, crpes, or rather fish and chips the delicious meals strain our figure with a lot of sugar and fat. A pancake, for instance, includes at least 175 kcal, a generous portion of syrup adds up to 200 kcal onto that number. Also, the popular crpe variation with chocolate cream puts about 400 kcal on the calorie account. Roasted almonds are even higher in the line: 3.5 oz. contain 500 kcal. Hearty foods are not better. The classic fish and chips, even in a small portion, contain up to 570 kcal. A nice, warm beverage along with the food is also alarming for the calorie antennas: With 400 kcal, a hot chocolate carries as much calories as most foods at a typical Christmas market. Just a little bit less calories, but still in same area, is eggnog, which includes about 350 kcal per cup.
Low-calorie alternatives
Of course, Christmas does not need to be a time of renunciation, even for calorie-conscious eaters. Those who like to combine strolling through the Christmas market with eating some snacks choose the low-calorie alternatives. Fans of a sweet-nutty taste should opt to eat hot chestnuts, which contain only half the calories of roasted almonds. Delicious crpes can also be enjoyed, only with a little bit of powdered sugar instead of with chocolate cream or a sweet jelly. And when it comes to drinking at the Christmas market: A nice hot cup of tea accompanies the visit just as good as a hot chocolate or eggnog.
