How can we prepare effectively and manage our excesses during the year-end holidays?

Soon the year-end festive season will begin again. Traditionally, it is an opportunity to gather with family, creating a genuine shared joy around these precious moments.

This period lends itself to letting go, and it is not uncommon to give in to the urge to savour, to eat and to drink more than necessary, setting aside our year-round guidelines and often feeling guilty afterwards!

So how can you manage this period in the best possible way while avoiding the excesses that show up after each meal, such as bloating, headaches and a sluggish digestion that signal a liver under strain?

First of all, between festive meals, make sure to include the following eight keys that work:

1. Drink unsweetened herbal teas and warm lemon water regularly throughout the day.
2. After a heavy meal, favour at the next meal raw vegetables, steamed vegetables and a small portion of protein such as chicken or steamed fish to “recover”.
3. Avoid unhealthy nibbles at the aperitif and opt instead for crudités with a tapenade, and go easy on the spread.
4. Choose wholesome foods for your festive meal, such as shellfish, seafood platters, salmon, raw vegetables, winter vegetables, black pudding, leg of lamb, and other balanced dishes.
5. If possible, avoid desserts and ask for an herbal tea or bring your own.
6. Take digestive enzymes with your meals.
7. Chew slowly, because digestion begins in the mouth and you will reach satiety more quickly.
8. Limit alcohol consumption, as it can acidify the body, increase inflammation, and have a negative impact on the liver.

To help your liver face this festive period without too much stress and harmful consequences, the DETOX® Pack is a valuable ally.

This DETOX® Pack, made up of two types of capsules, Hepatop and Renatop, was designed to optimise the functioning of your liver, ease digestion and contribute to effective detoxification.
