The festive season is around the corner, and Dussehra or Diwali are synonymous with happiness and indulgence. But what about those who suffer from diabetes, heart and liver diseases, or even cancer? They often tend to ignore their regular dietary habits and end up eating a lot of oily and refined food. An imbalanced diet rich in fat, sugar and salt, high pollution level including noise pollution, and erratic routines are common during this time, and can be dangerous for those with any of these ailments. But this should not deter them from enjoying the festivals. A little care is all that is needed to make enjoy yourself without compromising on health.
