Winter pale afternoon, oranges, cakes, lazing up at the terrace sums up the winter season`s fantasy. Winter is basically indolent spell and this time of the year we involuntarily roll ourselves with layers of woolens. It’s very heartbreaking to leave the cozy warm quilt in the mornings and move ahead with our daily routine. I love this period because the nip in the air entices me, stirs in me the vivid memories and yearnings exclusively attached with this season. Alas it doesn`t last long! Have felt that this is the ideal time for outing and eating…slurp and drool!
Going to the vegetable market during winters is an onomatopoeic delight. The stack of my local vegetable shop-owner is all colorful and cheerful. It’s like you can get your kid and while getting vegetables you can actually check whether he recognizes the colors like green, white, orange, yellow, red, purple so on and so forth. Everything looks fresh and just out of the fields. Sound childish but I love it. These small things in life generate more joy than bigger things. The elders always say that if you have to eat well and varied wait for the mercury to descend. There is a strange belief that in winters falling ill is less compared to any other season of the year. I don`t know if this is absolutely true but then there is nothing wrong in playing safe. Treat your taste buds, pamper them but don`t inflate. Acidity and heartburn will follow soon if eating is not under surveillance. We actually don`t know whether we have less acids or more acids. We think acidity is always more and as such should be curbed down by taking pills meant for counteracting acidity. It’s as common as chewing gums.
Since we are talking of winter and its infinite possibilities it’s better to shake our memory a bit. Banking on vegetable juices as acid reflux remedies will never ever disappoint you. Fruit juices have high sugar content. People go for fruit juices more than veggies but that is not going to be helpful if you want to employ heartburn remedies. Instead juices made of spinach, beet, apple and a little celery is a natural way to combat stomach related ailments. Or how about lemon, ginger and apple blended together? People suffering from acid reflux and heartburn can start their day with a glass of these healthy nutritious juices to kick away all the problems and detoxify their body.
