Russia’s health agency shares tips for post-holiday recovery
Russia’s consumer health watchdog, Rospotrebnadzor, has released advice for recovering from holiday excesses. The recommendations focus on diet, exercise, and sleep to help people return to their usual routines after New Year celebrations.
The agency suggests easing back into normal eating habits with light, low-fat foods. Soups, vegetables, and dairy products are preferred over heavy, fatty, or fried dishes. Alcohol, sweets, and fast food should also be avoided, though fasting is not recommended.
To restore energy, moderate physical activity is encouraged. Daily walks and gentle exercise can help boost metabolism after a period of indulgence. The guidance also highlights the importance of sleep, urging a gradual return to a regular bedtime and wake-up schedule. Rospotrebnadzor stresses a balanced approach rather than extreme measures. The goal is to transition smoothly from festive habits to everyday health routines.
The advice comes as many in Russia adjust after the New Year holidays. By focusing on lighter meals, consistent sleep, and gentle movement, the agency aims to help people regain their usual energy levels. The recommendations avoid strict restrictions, instead promoting steady, sustainable changes.
