Speaking on the occasion the film star and director Srinivas Avasarala said, my fitness mantra is to go to the gym as soon as I get up from bed, but never do. By visiting the Sports Expo and seeing many fitness freaks, I am now motivated and doubly charged to get back to fitness, which I skipped after COVID-19.

It is very important to have an active lifestyle. And my message to people is that your body is a very important thing in life. Be fit and take care of it. It is better to be fit rather than regret later, the film star added. Be fit and keep the lifestyle diseases and doctors away, he added.

The expo is a B2C platform that unites leading brands and exhibitors from diverse segments of the sports, fitness, nutrition, and wellness industry. It has 55 exhibitors informed TS Srikanth, Business Head of Hitex.

Supplement your journey to fitness with Almonds, this National Day of Sports!

Aug 25, 2020 by Gouri Achary 0 Comments #Almonds, #fitness, #Madhuri Ruia, #Major Dhyan Chand, #Max Healthcare – Delhi, #National Day of Sports, #Nutrition and Wellness Consultant, #Pilates Expert and Diet & Nutrition Consultant, #Regional Head – Dietetics, #Ritika Samaddar, #Sheela Krishnaswamy

Every year, we celebrate National Day of Sports to honour and commemorate the spirit of a legendary sportsperson, Major Dhyan Chand who is regarded as the nation’s greatest hockey player ever. The day was instituted to educate India’s youth on the importance of being fit and healthy, by practising sports and other physical activities.

Along with a focused approach towards one’s fitness levels, it is equally important to supplement this routine with good nutrition, a balanced diet, and healthy snacking. Good nutrition paves the way to a healthy lifestyle and is a small investment towards long-term health. This can be achieved, by simply making small, yet relevant and impactful changes to the diet like adding a handful of almonds.

Stressing on the need to eat right to complement one’s sports schedule, Ritika Samaddar, Regional Head – Dietetics, Max Healthcare – Delhi, said, “The amount, composition and choice of food intake can profoundly affect a sports performance. Balancing nutritional needs while practising a sport or form of exercise is very important as it helps build the foundation for success. A handful of almonds make for the perfect post-workout sports snack, as they provide energy and are known to have satiating properties. Additionally, Almonds also contain healthy fats which are required by the body, and are a good source of protein, which will help enable your sports routine.”

According to Madhuri Ruia, Pilates Expert and Diet & Nutrition Consultant, “Sports and physical exercise are very important for the body’s overall growth and development. But, to optimize your physical training it’s essential to consume balanced and nutritious diets including healthy snacks. Fuel your routine with a handful of almonds, which along with being nutritious also promote heart health. According to recent research from King’s College London, snacking on almonds every day improved endothelial function of the arteries and also lowered “bad” LDL-cholesterol – both key indicators of heart health[1].”

Highlighting the need to snack right while engaging in physical activities, Sheela Krishnaswamy, Nutrition and Wellness Consultant, said, “said, “People in India are increasingly understanding the significance of sports and regular physical activity. More so now, as there is a greater interest around immunity especially with regard to foods and practices that can help strengthen it. Research has also suggested that regular moderate-intensity exercise can also strengthen immunity[1]. This is important more so for children, as they continue to attend online classes at home without much physical activity. Parents must ensure that they set up a routine so that the child engages in some sort of sport/physical activity every day. Also, be sure to augment this routine by adding snacks like almonds to the child’s diet. Almonds are a source of zinc, folate and iron, all nutrients that are known to contribute to a normal function of the immune system.”

Fueling the body with the right foods is essential while playing any sport or even maintaining a proper fitness routine. This year, take a pledge and commit to your health goals by eating well and staying fit.
