How to swap calories for a healthier diet?

Whenever you are hoping to lose a few pounds, or are looking for ways to jump start a major diet plan, here are a few suggestions for swapping calories that can make a big difference on the scale, and in your overall health.

  • Water v/s Aerated Drinks

What do we first think of, when thirsty? We think of everything but water, we think of Pepsi, Coke, Sprite, Seven up, Frooti, Maaza… the list is endless. But other than quenching our thirst, these soft drinks also ‘gift’ us caffeine, loads of sugar, artificial colors, flavors, preservatives and loads of other chemicals.

Here’s what the Calories have to Say: 250 ml of water contains 0 calories, while 250 ml of any Aerated drinks generally contains 100-130 calories!
