How to Recover From Post‑Diwali Bloating Without Crash Diets

New coverage urges a gentle reset focused on hydration, real food, probiotics, fiber and light movement.

Overview

  • News18 advises flushing out excess salt and sugar with water, infused drinks and herbal teas, then returning to simple, unprocessed meals.
  • Smaller, balanced portions every 3–4 hours and consistent meal timing, ideally finishing dinner earlier, help stabilize digestion and energy.
  • Start with light activity such as walking, yoga or stretching, add daily movement habits like taking stairs, and prioritize sleep to curb cravings.
  • Rebuild gut health with probiotics like curd, kefir, kanji or fermented pickles, increase fiber, reduce refined sugar and caffeine, and go easy on spices.
  • Times Now highlights Ayurvedic options including ginger tea, fennel, and lemon or turmeric water, with some traditional suggestions like 16:8 fasting and sesame oil abdominal massage noted as optional and less strongly sourced, while both outlets caution against crash diets and detox teas; manage leftover sweets by freezing, sharing or repurposing.
