Experts Warn of Heart, Digestive, and Food Safety Risks During Festive EatingPreviousNext

During festive seasons, indulgence in sweets, fried foods, and altered eating habits can impact heart and digestive health, especially for individuals with pre-existing conditions. Cardiologists warn that excess sugar, salt, unhealthy fats, and alcohol may raise risks of heart disease, blood pressure, and blood sugar issues. Additionally, reduced fiber intake and large meals can cause digestive discomfort. Experts also caution against repeatedly reheating leftovers and improper storage of sweets, which may lead to foodborne infections and nutrient loss, emphasizing safe food handling practices.
