Thanksgiving Bloating Tips: How I Enjoy the Feast

I love Thanksgiving. I do not love feeling stuffed until Saturday.

Number 7 is the one most people miss. It works best on top of the others, so don't skip ahead.

Here’s what helps me

✿
  1. 1

    Eat a normal breakfast

    Skipping it makes you overeat later.

    How to: Protein breakfast as usual.

  2. 2

    Drink water all day

    It helps with salty holiday food.

    How to: A glass before the meal and between plates.

  3. 3

    Start with vegetables

    Fill a third of your plate with them first.

    How to: Salad, green beans, roasted carrots.

  4. 4

    Eat slowly

    Your stomach needs time to say it is full.

    How to: Put your fork down and talk between bites.

  5. 5

    Walk after the meal

    The best family tradition.

    How to: Get everyone outside for 15 minutes before pie.

  6. 6

    Back to normal the next day

    One big meal is not a problem.

    How to: Water, walk and a regular breakfast the next morning.

  7. 7

    The one most people miss

    These tips help on the big day, but what keeps my stomach calm all week is one little capsule every morning.

    Here’s why: lots of probiotics die in stomach acid before they ever reach the gut. Mine comes in a delayed release capsule made to get through the stomach, with 10 strains and a prebiotic to feed them.

Quick questions

How long until I feel a difference?

For me, my stomach felt calmer over the first week or two, and by a month it was just my normal. Everyone is different, so give it a full 30 days.

Is it hard to take?

No. One capsule a day, with or without food. No powder to mix and no taste. I take mine with my morning water.

Is it worth the money?

I thought it would be pricey, but it’s usually $24.97, goes on sale a lot, and it’s $17.49 right now. That’s about 58 cents a day, less than a cup of coffee.

Can I take it with the rest of my routine?

Yes, I take it alongside everything on this page. Simple is the point: one capsule, then I get on with my day. If you take medication, read the label and ask before you start.
