Enjoy Your Mooncake, Mindfully : Gourmet Skin Bar

 

 

It’s nearly time for Mid-Autumn Festival and that means Mooncakes! You definitely should enjoy your mooncake, but perhaps in a more mindful way.  Gourmet Skin Bar cares for the beauty and well being of its clients, thus it’s important to us to address the topic of balancing food intake during the Mid-Autumn Festival. It’s easy to stray away from the conventional ways during the holidays when there’s the opportunity to feast on a large amount of food and especially the sweet, orange mooncakes.

Here are some tips on how to enjoy your mooncake this season, but in a more mindful fashion:

The first tip is simple, share your mooncake with your friends and family. Snagged a mooncake on your lunch break? Split it in half and share with a colleague- now that’s a smart way to network as well as curbing an excessive intake of fat and sugar.

Next, try enjoying some tea with your mooncake, such as flower tea, green tea or oolong tea.  These teas aid digestion and helps prevent body fat. Be sure to avoid carbonated beverages, which are loaded with calories and sugar!

Avoid having a mooncake as your breakfast; or as a meal in general. Balanced nutrition is key to good health. This means you shouldn’t save your mooncakes and eat them as breakfast. Your meals should be balanced- good carbs, good fat and good protein. Mooncakes are high in sugar and if eaten in the morning will increase your blood sugar level. This results in a sugar crash later on, leaving you feeling more tired and craving more sugary food. Instead, enjoy one as a treat- preferably sharing with your family and friends.

Mooncakes are delicious festival desserts, to always enjoy in moderation. We are what we eat - as well as what we put on our body. During this festive season, try to take some special time just for yourself to rejuvenate and love your body and health, just as Gourmet Skin Bar is committed to providing you with safe, natural and sustainable beauty brand choices.
