Avoid Holiday Weight Gain
No time of year is special like the holiday season! But as exciting as it is, it surely can bring a lot of stress. For one, think about all the decorating, gift wrapping, and cooking you’ll have to do. Not to mention preparing the house for all of your guests! All of this can put quite a toll on your body, giving holiday stress a whole new meaning.
Of course, this is a scenario we don’t want to experience. For that reason, we’ve prepared a few tips on how to have the best healthy holidays. From hydration to smart food choices, we’ve covered everything so you can the jolliest (and healthiest!) season yet!
Remember To Drink Your Water
Holiday cocktails and endless cups of coffee can make you feel more parched than a Christmas tree on New Year’s Day. Hydration is an essential part of having a healthy holiday season if you want to keep your energy up and your digestion on track. Try to start your day with a big glass of water and keep a reusable bottle handy.
Don’t Skip Your Meals
We know you may be tempted to save some room for the big feast, so you decide to skip breakfast or lunch. However, this is no way of staying healthy for the holidays, as it can wreak havoc on both your energy and your digestion. When you skip meals, this can lead to overeating later and leave your blood sugar levels all over the place. We recommend you eat small, balanced meals throughout the day. Include a mix of protein, healthy fats, and carbs, and feel steady.
Try To Avoid The Holiday Stress (As Much As You Can)
When you’re a host, you need to navigate the family dynamics (and find the perfect gifts in the meantime) can all pile on the holiday stress. This can take a toll on your health. Take a moment for yourself, and don’t refrain from taking short breaks. This can be anything from a quick walk, a 10-minute meditation, or just sit down with a cup of tea.
And if you feel dizzy and nauseous from all the stress, try our Queasy drops. Keep them handy in your bag or pocket for relief anytime, anywhere.
Make Smart Food Choices
We don’t say you need to skip the cookies (life’s too short for that) but rather find the balance. It’s not ideal, but an essential part of having healthy holidays. Try this – fill up your plate with veggies and lean proteins first. Then, enjoy smaller portions of the heavier dishes.
Our tip for mindful eating – Eat slowly and savor each bite. You will feel more satisfied and less likely to overeat.
Stay Active
You don’t need a full workout to stay healthy – but you still need to move. Try to take a walk after meals. Dance to your favorite holiday playlist. You can even try to play an active game with the family. Even light activity aids digestion, boosts mood, and keeps you energized.
Healthy holidays are meant to be enjoyed, and our Queasy Drops and Preggie Products can help you achieve just that. Remember that our products will always have your back.
