SUMMER HEAT AND FLUID INTAKE
- by Dr. Anshu Kumra
The heat of summer is affecting everyone. Staying well hydrated is essential to maintain adequate blood volume, energy levels and body functions.
Most of us should consume at least 8-12 glasses of water every day. However, the exact amount depends on the activity level, the outdoor temperature and body composition. With hot humid days the need goes up. In addition, if someone has more muscle than fat, liquid- need increases. Stay well-hydrated by drinking water, beverages, juices, milk and eating lots of seasonal fruits and vegetables.
SUMMER SMOOTHIE
Ingredients:
- Low fat yogurt – 1 cup
- Pineapple juice – 1cup
- Strawberries- 5
- Banana – 1
- Ice cubes (crushed) – 3
Preparation:
Mix all the ingredients and blend them in a blender. Pour into tall glasses and serve with a straw each.
Yield: 3 servings
MANGO AND GREEN TEA SORBET
Combine the health benefits of green tea with the exotic sweetness of mangoes and you have a tasty Weight Watchers recipe.
Ingredients:
· Water - 2/3 cup
· Loose green tea leaves - 1/3 cup
· Sugar -1/2 cup
· Ripe mangoes - 3
· Fresh lemon juice -3 tablespoons
Preparation:
Put water and tea leaves in a saucepan. Bring just to a boil, remove from heat and let steep 5 minutes. Strain and discard the leaves. Return tea to clean saucepan, add sugar and bring to a boil. Boil until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and cool.
Peel mangos and cut it into pieces. Puree mangos with lemon juice in a blender. Add tea and blend until smooth. Pour into a 9-inch glass baking dish and freeze for about 3 hours.
Transfer mango mixture to a food processor. Churn for 30 to 40 seconds and serve at once.
Yield: 6 to 8 servings
