Holi, which begins with Holika Dahan, is played with great enthusiasm till late afternoon. However, as soon as the Holi celebrations are over, most of us start feeling tired. Running, playing with water, dancing, and doing physical activities while playing with colors leads to excessive use of energy, due to which you may feel very tired and sleepy.

Let us know what measures can you take after playing Holi to remove fatigue and make the body energetic again.

Why do fatigue and lethargy occur after Holi?

It is common to feel tired and lethargic in the body after playing Holi. There can be many reasons behind this. Health experts say that the running, dancing, and singing of Holi reduces the energy reserves in the body, due to which you start feeling tired as soon as the celebration ends.

Spending more time in colors, water and sun causes water and electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, and magnesium to be released from the body in the form of sweat. Lack of electrolytes can cause muscle weakness, headache, and lethargy.

Lack of sleep is also a reason.

Apart from this, artificial colors contain heavy metals and harmful chemicals, which can get absorbed into the skin and body and cause allergies, skin itching, and fatigue.

One reason for fatigue is also considered to be the disruption of circadian rhythm during Holi. Waking up late and partying before or after Holi can affect the body's circadian rhythm (the body's biological clock), your sleep is not complete, due to which you can feel tired and lethargic.
