Researchers on New Year's celebrations: why you shouldn't be afraid of extra kilograms.

Studies show that New Year's holidays are not as harmful as previously thought

Experts believe that a slight excess of kilograms during this period is not a problem. This information was published on the Science Alert website.

'The science of nutrition is very complex. Some studies indicate that even with a significant increase in calorie intake and deterioration in diet, weight gain may not occur. Many of these studies were conducted in the Northern Hemisphere, where holidays fall in winter. They focus more on weight than on health,' explained Emma Beckett, a nutrition expert from Newcastle University.

According to her, eating is an important part of our social life and contributes to our well-being.

Expert recommendations for New Year's holidays

• Drink in moderation and don't forget about water.
• Be cautious with food to avoid food poisoning.
• Check if your guests have allergies to the dishes you serve.

We remind you that due to martial law in 2022, additional holidays were canceled starting from March 8, 2022.
