Experience a No-Bloat Holiday Gut Health Gift of Love

Dreading the Holidays? Prepare Your Gut for the Onslaught of Holiday Treats

Is your memory of previous Thanksgivings a that your belly was more stuffed than the turkey?

Do fear you will not be able to slip on your favorite dress, or zip your pants after feasting? To gain weight at any time of year can be depressing. However, food addictions surge during the holidays.

1. Establish a No-Bloat Holiday

This concept begins with using digestive enzymes after every protein meal. Stock up on Enzyme Energy now. Since my shipping department is not Amazon, we do not ship overnight for free. I get so many SOS’s during holidays asking for product delivery ASAP. Although we do the best we can, an extra cost for overnight shipping is necessary. Consequently, it’s best to order now to keep from running out—not wait until invited to an unexpected family potluck.

2. Practice Food Combining

Consuming proteins and carbohydrates separately can boost energy; plus stabilize your weight. In fact, you may even lose a few pounds by practicing orderly food coming. Food combining looks like this: on Thanksgiving, enjoy a salad, all those devious roasted low-carb veggies (carrots, beets, parsnips, peas, green beans) and the turkey. Then, two hours later, devour a delicious gluten-free pumpkin pie or sweet potato with butter, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

In other words, no need to choose between a protein and carbohydrate feast. The goal is to eat food categories separately. If serving soup, time for that to digest before the entrees are served. Soup dilutes precious digestive enzymes, and which can lead to bloat and constipation.

3. Travel Like a Champ

There is another side to this. Those who experience loose bowels often deal with this inconvenience even more during holidays. Stress, schedule changes. and uncharted cuisine can send a colicky colon to the porcelain throne— not once, but again and again. If you struggle with that, I have a solution. Happy Gut Cleanse is a colon balancer and regular once-a-day doses can help keep your gut calm and stable.

4. Practice Deep Breathing

Even in the best of times holidays can produce a stress reaction. Take a moment to stop and ask yourself, “Am I panting, or am I breathing?” Then, take slow, deep breaths until your nervous system is reset. This saves your sanity and will reduce cortisol and consequently save your belly from increasing during this busy season.

5. Say NO

It is not impolite to speak up about your food preferences, your commitment to your diet and needs. When it comes to your gut conditions, do you ever wonder, “Why me?”

I certainly have. Although I know things happen for a reason, I believe my fairy godmothers and angels allowed my gut issues for me learn to speak up! Many of my clients are over-achievers as well as people pleasers. People pleasers say “yes” in response to requests—whether they have the energy or emotional bandwidth. Loved by all, and yet, they struggle with gut issues. Their job—and maybe yours too—is to finally prioritize themselves.

6. Give Yourself a Parasite Cleanse

‘Tis the season for a parasite cleanse! Get the bugs out before the holidays. With a 20% saving on Bugs Be Gone, this is the perfect time to say “good riddance” to bugs, bacteria, and parasites. You need not fast or skip meals to succeed with this cleanse. Just add Bugs Be Gone to your meals 1-2x a day for 21 days. This gentle but effective formula will help bust the bloat and heal your gut—especially if you suffer from any inflammatory gut condition.

7. Gift Yourself a Loving Gift

Book and schedule a professional coaching call. Let’s create a workable plan for you to heal, and maintain your program during the holidays. Often, people wait until after the holidays to do that makeover. Why? My protocols focus on practical, easy, and fun ways to heal. Personally, I like to make everything I do fun. I promise you our calls will be filled with not only information, but support, humor and compassion. I love my clients and am exited to meet and work with you!

Also, consider gifting a loved one the opportunity to transform their health trajectory…my parent-child, husband-wife and best friend team coaching calls create change and connection., You cannot fix your child or partner and they often do not want to hear “the truth” or solution from you. Let me do the hard work. I do it with love, topped with 40 years of gut health building experience.

8. Flush the Sugar

Let’s avoid transforming sugar into the form of inflammation or stored fat. If you haven’t tried Sugar Flush, the time is right. Sugar Flush stops sugar spikes before they start. This new, natural formula has helped my customers and clients lose weight, balance their blood sugar and satiate their cravings. During the holidays, massive sugar offerings equal massive temptations—Sugar Flush is to the rescue!

Another formula to have on hand during the holidays is Yeast Be Gone—for when you just had to gobble candy and now those yeast critters are calling for more. stop the cycle before it completely ruins your holidays.

To build a strong defense, I suggest you stock up on tools which fortify gut health. Add Protein Power and All Day Energy—healthy nutritious options for long travel days, cooking days, and taking-care-of-the kids and grandkid days.

I consume more protein drinks during holidays than any other time. That is because as a preventative, I enjoy a protein drink before a holiday event, to stop temptation of consuming something detrimental for my body because I might feel like I’m “starving”—or blood sugar has crashed.

Finally, I would like to invite you to my free ASK JULIA TikTok and YouTube live calls Fridays and Sundays at 4 pm PST. Meanwhile, breathe deeply. Keep moving. Do one thing everyday that brings you joy. Trust that your body will heal. I am sending hugs and holiday cheer.
