Weight Gain is Normal During Winter<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Are you aware of the fact that a lot of people tend to pack extra pounds during the coldest months of the year? Well, it can be blamed on a few things, and one of them is stress.<\/p>\n

It’s no secret that the holidays can be quite stressful, and it’s due to reasons such as demanding end-of-year office tasks, shopping for gifts, taking a trip to one’s hometown and spending a few days with family members. According to health authorities, too much stress can cause the body to gain excess weight. Of course, a major contributor to putting on some holiday weight is the overabundance of sugar-rich treats this time of year!<\/p>\n

Then there’s also failure to get enough sun as the days are shorter and the nights are longer during winter. Lack of sun can in fact leave us feeling down, which can cause our appetite to go up!<\/p>\n
