5 - Tips For Quicker Digestion:
When you eat a large meal, wait awhile before you eat dessert. When a large amount of food mixes with a large amount of sugar, the digestive acids in your stomach are not able to function properly and, at best, you will have a bloated stomach. So, in addition to feeling full when taking longer to eat, your body will also digest better with a 30-60 minute break between courses. Also, fresh mint tea helps to speed digestion.
The holiday season is a great opportunity to enjoy time with your loved ones, contemplate all the events of the year and to be thankful for what life has given us. Unless you have a serious health condition, don’t drive yourself crazy over the holidays, worrying about what you eat (or shouldn’t eat!), simply savor each moment and count your blessings. The New Year will bring a fresh start to juice, exercise and get back to focusing on your health. For now, be yourself, surround yourself with loved ones and share your joy with others.
