Optimal Health During Holidays

The holiday season presents opportunities to enhance both physical and emotional health. Hydration plays a crucial role in supporting the body's natural detoxification processes, especially after indulging in rich meals. Consuming hydrogen water, along with a pinch of sea salt, can aid in digestion and electrolyte balance, while encouraging light movement, such as a brisk walk after meals, further aids in digestion and reduces bloating. These simple practices promote overall well-being without resorting to extreme detox methods.
