Tis the season (for temptation...and gas and bloating!)
Happy Holidays! If you’re like most people, the likelihood of at least one indulgent meal is, well… pretty likely. We get it — temperatures are down, tempting foods abound, and family and friends are around, making it both a celebratory and stressful time. It happens to the best of us, and we want you to bounce back as best you can after an overindulgent meal and the subsequent case of the “blahs” that tend to follow.
Dr. Morrison shares his tips and tricks to prevent and cure symptoms from the nearly inevitable holiday binge and bloat, so you can bounce back fast.
So, do yourself a favor this holiday season and pick up some of our favorite remedies for surviving holiday indulgences.
