Beating the holiday “bloat”
Tis the season…to overindulge!
If you find yourself going a little overboard, Eat This, Not That has some tips to help you avoid that gassy, bloated feeling and get you back on track:
- Chew your food well…it helps your digestive system to process your meal.
- Incorporate ginger which can calm intestinal activity and reduce intestinal gas.
- Hydrate with water…aim for 80 ounces over the day.
- Lie on your left side after a meal to allow gravity to help digestion.
- Get moving! A small walk or light housework can beat the bloat.
