Why not give our digestion and body a little rest and support over the next few days, prepping us ahead of New Year’s Eve. So take the decision to step away from the left over mince pies, red wine, cheese and Christmas pudding. Instead, embrace the following tips to help you get back in shape over the next few days.

[1]  Beat the bloat with probiotics and digestive enzymes- Be caring to your digestion and beat the bloat which occurs post-Christmas. Start by adding digestive enzymes which will help break down the food we struggle to digest while probiotics will help flourish the intestines with healthy bacteria. Try Amazing Meal which contains 5billion probiotics per serving, a blend of nutritious greens and digestive enzymes.

[2]  Increase your daily steps with a brisk walk or weight training sessions- Now that the majority of us have a few days off, we have more time to take a brisk walk or hit an exercise class or weight session. Seek advice from a personal trainer at your local gym or challenge yourself with a different exercise class.

[3]  Increase your liquid intake- Add more herbal teas, water, or freshly made smoothies. Also try and make homemade soups as these also increase our fluid intake.  Increasing your hydration will support the body’s functions and help prevent dehydration which may occur from over indulging and consuming high caffeine or alcoholic beverages during the festive periods.

[4]  Gradually increase your intake of protein- As protein is essential for every cell of the body. It’s essential to include protein in every meal throughout the day as this will enable the body’s metabolism to work in an efficient manner. Besides the significance of protein for health, this essential macronutrient can also help sustain your hunger and prevent cravings.
