News India Live, Digital Desk: Salad dressing mistake: Whenever it comes to health and weight loss, the first thought of salad comes. We feel that eating salad by filling in a plate means guarantee of health. But do you know that there is also a right way to make a salad? Many times we inadvertently make some such mistakes, due to which the salad starts harming the body instead of benefits.

It is not necessary that every green-looking plate is also nutritious. Let’s know about the common mistakes that you should avoid while making salads.

Take special care of these 5 things while making salads:

1. Inserting the unhealthy dressing of the market: To enhance the taste of salad, we often use creamy and mayonnaise dressings available in the market. These dressing can be good in taste, but they are rich in calories, sugar and unhealthy fat. Instead of making the salad healthy, they turn into a high-calorie mile.
   • What to do: For dressing, use olive oil, lemon juice, black salt and black pepper at home. If you want, you can also prepare healthy dressings made of curd.
2. Mixing fried things: To make the salad crunchy and tasty, many people put fried noodles, fried breads (crosses) or salty things in it. These fried things eliminate all the nutritionalness of the salad and the purpose of losing weight is not fulfilled.
   • What to do: For crunch, add roasted chia seeds, sunflower seeds, linseed seeds or a handful of almonds and walnuts in the salad. They will be healthy as well as enhance the taste.
3. Do not wash the vegetables properly: This is a very common but dangerous mistake. Vegetables and fruits coming from the market are also applied to dust, soil as well as pesticides. If they are used in salads without washing them properly, then they can pose a serious threat to health.
   • What to do: Wash every vegetable and leaves used in salads at least 2-3 times with fresh and clean water.
4. Not choosing the right protein: To make salad a complete mile, it is necessary to have protein in it. But many people put things like fried chicken or processed meat in the name of protein, which are not healthy options.
   • What to do: Use boiled gram, rajma, cheese, tofu, boiled egg or grilled chicken for healthy protein.
5. Keep the salad long ago: Often people cut the salad long before and mix to save time. By doing this, the nutrients present in the vegetables start coming in contact with wind and light. Also, the salad releases water when pre -maintained and its taste also deteriorates.
   • What to do: Always try to cut and prepare the salad just before eating, so that you can get its full nutrition and freshness.

Next time when you prepare a plate of salad for your health, keep these things in mind so that your hard work is not wasted and the body gets full benefit.
