Working Moms Health And Why It Needs To Be A Priority?
My friend Ridhima(name changed) called me a few years back and told me that she had been unwell for some time and finally her condition was so bad that she was being hospitalised. Once she recovered, she moved to her mom’s place with the kids for a few weeks. I was a bit taken aback as the reaction she had was due to unhealthy lifestyle and the stress that she had been undergoing. Being a working mom, she had no respite, between home, office, travel and kids, she was not able to ever get off and relax. For years she had been coping until finally, her immune system collapsed and her body gave up. Doctor had advised her rest, stress free time and time away from work if she didn’t want it to become serious.
A Research Report on Working Millennial Mot2020′ that set out to understand everything from the food habits to fashion choices of urban mothers aged between 18 and 40, 85% interviewees admitted that they rarely or never cooked at home, while over two-thirds of the mothers said they always took care to ensure that they got good nutrition.
– Times Of India
Women, especially moms tend to ignore their needs and put family first. While it sounds very lovely and altruistic in theory, in the long run, they can suffer from many health issues and we all know that if the lady of the house is unwell, the whole house tends to go haywire. A mom’s immunity is as important as it is for the entire family. So, if not for your sake ladies, take care of your health for your family.
These simple changes in your lifestyle will help you;
Balanced Meal: Working Moms Health
- Always make sure you eat a balanced meal. In the Indian context, it is your regular dal, rice, roti, curd, coriander chutney, veggies and salads. Avoid the high sodium, preservative laden and junk foods. The body burns these foods laden with carbs and sugar faster than other nutrients which leaves you more tired.
Eating a balanced meal
Exercise Regularly:Working Moms Health
- Exercise regularly: Not only to stay healthy and fit but for that energy that you need to go through the day. Also, Endorphins keep you happy.
Regular exercise makes you fitter and Healthier
Supplement Your Food: Working Moms Health
- Make sure you supplement your food with the right nutrients. As the food we eat is not enough to meet our daily nutrient needs, it can lead to a weak immune system and if you are working out, you need to take care more. I, for one, have added Protinex Tasty Chocolate to my daily diet. Not only does it take care of your daily protein requirement gap but also has 10 essential nutrients like Vitamin B1 & B2 , Vitamin A,C, D, E, B12 & Folate to support immunity and Iron to maintain the normal function of the immune system. They have recently introduced their Zero Added Sugar variant which is great as I can avoid unnecessary sugar in my system, unlike other protein brands that contain quite an amount.

Avoid Distractions During Meals: Working Moms Health
- Don’t eat with distraction around, like watching TV or working, because then you will end up eating more and it affects your digestive powers.
Adequate Sleep: Working Moms Health
- Sleep for at least 8 hours. Or at least, make sure you have uninterrupted sleep to cope up with the next day. It is a great detox, it also increases your metabolism and works wonders for your mental health.
Planning : Working Moms And Why Their Health Needs To Be A Priority?
- Plan and organise your days, weeks in advance whether it is work or tasks at home. I have come to realise lists, decluttering and planning takes a lot of stress away.
Making Lists Keeps You Organised
Make Some Me Time: Working Moms Health
- Take some Me time. Between work and home and thousand other tasks in between, you don’t find time for just relaxing or doing things you like. Dedicate at least 30 minutes every day to just relaxing mentally. Whether it is coiling up with a book or having the cup of tea by yourself. This will help you clear up your mind.
Find Some Me Time
Delegate Work: Working Moms Health
- Finally, learn to delegate. We, as women of the house, feel that we need to do everything ourselves. Not everything needs perfection and it’s not humanly possible for you to do everything on your own. Learn to assign tasks to all members of the family or you will end up like Ridhima.

Working mothers are undoubtedly, the whole and sole caretaker of their families. And Protein is not stored in the body so it’s important to consume some amount on a regular basis and proteinex is definitely a good option. Thanks for sharing this informative blog
I remember having Protinex in my childhood and teen years and it seems a good option as an overworked mommy now. We do tend to neglect ourselves when we really shouldn’t!
Absolutely, a mom’s health is the pillar of the family.
Yes keeping a check on our health is very important. and delegating work is something that needs to start in all houses. either that or we segregate our work through the week instead of doing everything in one day. btw who is ridhima?
This so helpful for the women’s out there . I sure suggesting this to my elder sister & my mother .
Not just moms but wives too because we need health supplements too.
Protinex is a trusted brand & will buy soon.
Like they do for everyone else, women need to take good care of themselves aswell and when you have a wonderful option like proteinX to add the extra milega, I think it’s the best a woman can have….
I take it too at times and specially now since I have to be on top of my health to deal with all the indoor stays!
Rightly said. It’s very important to take care of health and nutrition. Protinex is indeed a healthy option for women.
We working moms need to tat care of ourselves. Protein is so important. Thanks for reminding.
Protinex has been one of the brands that I have consumed from my childhood till I used to work. Somehow after my son’s delivery, I stopped taking it altogether. Now that I am pregnant, my gynecologist has advised to me to consume Protinex daily as apart of my diet.
Working moms are the real heroes out there. Managing full-time jobs with family, especially in this pandemic, can take a toll on a woman’s health. Protinex seems like a product tailormade for working moms. Thanks for the recommendation.
