Improving Digestion Naturally

The Holiday season often means parties with family and friends, big dinners and lots of indulgences along the way and all that rich and excess food can wreak havoc with our digestive systems and leave us with upset tummies.

Indigestion, constipation, gas and bloating, are common effects of these over-indulgences during the holidays. To help you have a smoother digestive transition, here are a few tips to help you make healthy choices this winter:

Hit the veggies: Reach for the fiber-rich appetizers and food  as they will help you feel full and absorb excess liquid in your body Fiber also normalizes the rate at which food moves through the digestive tract. Fresh veggies, fruit platters and salsa are healthy choices that will help you feel full and make you less likely to overindulge on complex carbohydrates and fatty foods that are often difficult to digest. .

Drink water: Don’t forget to drink plenty of water each day. The dry air and being indoors more can dehydrate your system as can alcoholic beverages. While at a party, alternate alcohol with water to cut calories and keep your digestive system hydrated.

Don’t skip a meal to “save calories”: Rather than skipping lunch, choose a healthy salad with low-fat dressing. The added fiber will help keep you regular and you will be less likely to overindulge later.

Get some exercise: Exercise can help you manage the stress of the season and keep your digestion system active. So have a snowball fight, go sledding, join in the Wii dance-off at the party!  D

If your stomach  is still out of sorts, don’t fret! Let Rainbow Light come to the rescue this holiday season with a variety of digestive enzymes and probiotics supplements that will help ease you through the winter.  All are gluten-free, safe for those with common allergies and appropriate for vegans.
