With the holiday season around the corner Digestive Wellness, a Canadian company dedicated to creating digestive health products that work and are convenient, conducted a survey to find out if the parties and holiday goodies take a toll on our digestive health.The survey revealed that digestive symptoms prevent 1 out of 3 people from fully enjoying the holidays and over 65% of people experience increased gas and bloating.
President of Digestive Wellness, Jennifer Richards, wasn’t surprised to learn people experience more gas and bloating during the holidays, but she was surprised they don’t do anything about it.“I was baffled that over 50% of people choose to “grin and bear” these uncomfortable symptoms when they could take a digestive supplement like “digest” right before they eat and feel better,” says Richards.
Digest is a supplement, from Digestive Wellness, that is designed specifically to break down the troublesome ingredients found in our favourite holiday dishes including milk, fats, wheat starch and sugars. Just one digest pill has as much lactase as Lactaid, as much bean enzyme as Beano and it also breaks down wheat, fat and starch.Taking digest before a cocktail party or holiday meal will prevent gas and bloating and allow you to enjoy yourself!
And the survey says:
•Digestive symptoms prevent 1 out of 3 people from enjoying the holiday season.
•38% Described their holiday diet philosophy as: “eat now pay later “
•Over 65% of people experience increased gas and bloating during the holiday season.
•Yet, 50% just grin and bear digestive symptoms rather than taking a digestive
supplement or avoiding certain foods that cause digestive symptoms.
•The top 3 holiday foods that trigger
digestive symptoms:
#1Shortbread cookies and other baked goods
#2 Hors d’oeuvres
#3 Stuffing
