Es una celebración tradicional mexicana y en general mesoamericana que honra a los muertos. Tiene lugar los días 1 y 2 de noviembre y está vinculada a las celebraciones católicas de Día de los Fieles Difuntos y Todos los Santos.
Día de muertos
La página de la Unesco señala que el Día de Muertos se lleva a cabo a finales de octubre e inicios de noviembre, sin embargo, esta celebración está asociada principalmente al 1 y 2 de noviembre.
¿Por qué celebramos el Día de Muertos el 1 y 2 de noviembre?
Día de Muertos se acerca y eso sólo significa una cosa: debes poner tu ofrenda. Esta celebración no es igual si no pones tu altar cubierto con pétalos de cempasúchil, fotos de tus seres querídos difuntos y sus alimentos favoritos. https://www.milenio.com/cultura/ofrenda-de-dia-de-muertos-cuando-se-pone-y-que-lleva

Tip
If you get a sweet craving, try having fruit instead!

Don’t get thirsty
Aim for 8-10 glasses of fluid per day. Water is the best choice as it hydrates you without adding any extra calories to your daily intake.
Most types of drink count including water, tea, coffee, soft drinks, milk, fruit juice and smoothies, but try to avoid added sugar in your drinks as this can increase risk of dental decay.

Get active and be a healthy weight!
Physical activity can help you to maintain weight loss or be a healthy weight. Being active doesn’t have to mean hours at the gym: you can find ways to fit more activity into your daily life.
Tip
Try getting off the bus one stop early on the way home from work, and walking. Being physically active may help reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke.

Don’t skip breakfast
A healthy breakfast can provide fibre, calories, vitamins and minerals important for health.
Choose wholegrain cereals, porridge or wholemeal toast with fruit for a healthy start to the day.
