In the winter season fat protects our body against the cold and it needs more energy to digest food.

In winter due to cold the oil spores in our body gets closed. That's why if we do itching on our skin marks will be seen. And our hair too will get dried. Due to non production of oil through oil factor on the scalp. And our body requires more fat which will be converted to oil due to heat and will be maintained.

In winter our body metabolism rate increases due to which digestion process also increases because body needs more energy to withstand the seasonal variation. As heat losses in the form of ATP to regulate various bodily mechanism. In order to prevent heat loss from the body vasoconstriction takes place. But inspite of this body needs extra energy in the form of carbohydrates, fats etc. Therefore Dietician advised to take good diet in winter to make body fit and fine.
