As winter descends upon Oman, it brings relief from the scorching heat and ushers in the challenges of flu. At the same time, it unveils a myriad of health benefits for its residents.


The Sultanate of Oman, known for its typically high temperatures, experiences a refreshing change with the onset of winter, making it the opportune time for outdoor activities and exercise.


"This season offers a unique chance for Oman's inhabitants to embrace an active and healthy lifestyle. From brisk walks to invigorating runs, the cooler weather provides the perfect backdrop for individuals to engage in physical activities that contribute to overall well-being. The crisp air and pleasant temperatures create an inviting environment, encouraging people to step outdoors and make the most of this fitness-friendly season," says Dr Viprashree, a specialist at NMC Hospital.


Furthermore, winter brings abundant fresh fruits and vegetables to Oman's markets and tables.


The local produce, rich in vitamins and nutrients, not only adds a burst of flavour to meals, but also contributes to a balanced and nutritious diet.


This seasonal bounty provides an excellent opportunity for residents to prioritise their health by incorporating a variety of wholesome foods into their daily intake.


In essence, Oman's winter is not just a respite from extreme heat but a golden period to prioritise health and well-being through outdoor activities and nourishing seasonal produce. It is a time to savour the season's benefits and embrace a holistic approach to fitness and nutrition.
