The holiday season can tempt people to veer away from their usual eating routines as most seek to indulge in delicious Christmas meals and treats.<\/p>\n

However, for those prioritising their gut health, adhering to a regular eating schedule and sticking to good habits remains at the centre of their diet.<\/p>\n

The frequent deviation from typical eating habits, particularly during the holiday season with its abundance of snacks and large meals, has the potential to disturb digestive regularity and bowel control. This disruption may lead to an uptick in instances of stomach upset.<\/p>\n

While indulging in special meals, it is advisable to strike a balance by maintaining a consistent meal routine, according to experts at the Incontinence Shop.<\/p>\n

This approach helps prevent unexpected surprises from your stomach when you least anticipate them.<\/p>\n

These fibrous foods can be considered superheroes for your gut, ensuring smooth digestive processes, promoting bowel health, and delivering a wealth of essential nutrients.<\/p>\n

Embracing this variety not only enhances the holiday dining experience but also contributes to overall well-being.<\/p>\n

Cold weather often discourages outdoor activities in winter. However, even a brisk walk can be instrumental in strengthening pelvic floor muscles, crucial components for maintaining bladder and bowel control.<\/p>\n
