The turkey is thawing, the last minute grocery shopping is starting, and friends and family will soon arrive. Such a joyous celebration! Don't let the festivities be ruined by indigestion due to the rich menu. There are two ways to assist your digestion through the holiday season.
First, have a pitcher of natural mountain spring water with lemon wedges available. Keep it on the dinner table so that guests can help themselves. The mineral rich water will provide needed minerals in our diet, and the lemons will help our gal bladders handle the rich fatty foods.
For the guests who know that they suffer from indigestion and need some relief, keep organic apple cider vinegar at hand. They can either take a tablespoon or two before eating, or put it on their salad. This will increase the stomach's pH, which will assist in breaking down the heavy meal.
I offer my patients a product called Betaine Hydrochloric Acid. It is the same type of acid that is in our stomachs, so adding more right before big, heavy meals, helps break down our food more efficiently.
If you have questions about indigestion or any other concerns, please feel free to contact me.
Wishing you and yours a happy and healthy Thanksgiving!
