Health and wellness brand Natures Zest is urging people to pay attention to their gut health as they indulge in festive celebrations this Christmas.
Seasonal factors such as increased food intake, dietary changes, and stress can contribute to digestive discomfort. With recent studies finding that 86% of UK adults reported experiencing a gastrointestinal issue within the past year, Natures Zest has emphasised the importance of being mindful of what we consume during this season.
Jason Layton, Director at Natures Zest, said: “Christmas is often celebrated with indulgent feasts, gatherings filled with rich foods, and a plethora of festive treats. While these traditions bring joy and togetherness, they can also lead to discomfort and digestive issues for many.
“At Natures Zest, we believe that understanding this connection is vital for maintaining health during this celebratory time of year, especially as studies have found that the prevalence of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) in the UK has risen in recent years.”
To make the season more comfortable, Natures Zest has shared practical advice for managing digestion during the holidays.
Jason explained: “Enjoy festive foods in moderation to avoid overloading your digestive system, and drink plenty of water to support digestion and balance out richer meals. Adding fruits and vegetables to your meals is another way to promote healthy digestion.
“We also encourage people to consider supplements for added support during this time. Our affordable range of digestive health products is designed to help you take control of your health and enjoy Christmas without discomfort.”
Natures Zest is a UK leading vitamin and supplement brand and works with customers to make quality health and wellness accessible to all. The company stocks a wide range of digestive health and probiotic supplements up to 100bn CFU, as well as some single strain probiotics which can help alleviate temporary digestive issues associated with sudden diet changes that occur around Christmas.
