2023-12-30 07:38:56

The end-of-year celebrations rhyme with foie gras, champagne, turkey and other little taste pleasures that we enjoy with All I Want For Christmas Is You in the background. However, due to accumulation, the digestive system takes a hit, transit is not in top form and headaches appear. However, there is an easy-to-make drink that helps eliminate toxins and keep you in shape.

What are the consequences of end-of-year holiday excesses?

The conviviality of the end-of-year celebrations translates into warm moments around hearty meals and alcoholic drinks. Indeed, this is the moment when our alcohol consumption becomes a little more important than usual; so to avoid the effects of hangovers the next day or other headaches, nutritionists recommend drinking plenty of water. This helps avoid difficult tomorrows, but also prevents dehydration. In addition, consuming foods that are too rich for several consecutive days leads to digestive difficulties, but it also harms proper intestinal functioning.

Hot water, the detox we all need in these times of excess

In order to eliminate toxins, it is recommended in Chinese medicine to drink hot water upon waking up. The heat facilitates the movement of food through the digestive tract. As a result, intestinal mobility is improved and digestion is therefore easier. The consumption of water has the virtue to increase the production of gastric juices which are also called intestinal cleansers. This contributes to eliminate toxins accumulated by a rich diet and by an overflow of glasses of champagne. It’s an effective way to not bite your fingers too much following enjoying all these pleasures without moderation.
