The season of winter generally commences at the end of October and concludes before the occasion of Holi which is the month of March. A sense of laziness and prolonged comfort prevails in any human mind and body during this time which further contributes towards a sedentary lifestyle. This can be harmful to overall human health. To avoid any negative impact on a healthy body some imperative measures need to be followed. This includes routine exercise which keeps a human being fit and fresh. Brisk walking should not be neglected. 

The winter season is a wonderful period as it includes several glamorous festivals. People around celebrate this phase of the year with a high zeal. We indulge ourselves wholeheartedly in touring around, picnicking in appealing places, and also occasionally partying with our family and close mates.

The winter special eateries which appear quite attractive can affect normal health after consumption. During this time, the irregularities in our day-to-day standard lifestyle are a threat. Diabetics, Hypertension, and people with COPD and heart issues must not neglect medicines and their routine Doctor visits amidst all the festivities. If an individual bears a habit of Alcohol Drinking then it is a major problem that needs to be restricted and controlled.
