The 10 Best Bridal Fitness Bootcamps

 

1. Salty Food
According to celebrity nutritionist Keri Glassman, MS, RD, CDN, the number one food brides should avoid is sodium. “When you’re looking to get rid of every last ounce of unwanted bloat under the skin, steer as clear from salt as possible,” Glassman recommends.
2. Fried Food
Even though you might want to bury your nerves with French fries and onion rings, it isn’t going to make slipping into that dress any easier. The problem with fried food, Glassman explains, is that it can cause bloating and inflammation — also noting that, “inflammation is bad for everything from hair to skin.”
3. Packaged Food
Packaged foods are often full of sugar, salt and preservatives — none of which have a particularly fabulous effect on your bod — or your gut. Your best bet is to avoid highly processed foods altogether, but in a pinch you can try counteracting any unpleasant symptoms with potassium. Laura Iu, the registered dietician behind the health-inspired Instagram account @dowhatiulove explains: “While sodium makes the body retain water, potassium helps the body shed water.” The best part? Your options are pretty delicious. Mango, avocado, papaya, kiwi, dandelion greens and bananas are all high in potassium.
