Did you overeat during Easter? / 2 simple rules to calm your body

Family gatherings and delicious home-cooked meals are a common sight during the Easter holiday. However, the large meals that characterize the holiday often make people more prone to overeating, which can cause bloating, stomach pain, heartburn, and drowsiness.

Nutritionists emphasize that our bodies have the power to cope with overeating and with a few simple moves, the side effects can quickly disappear.

The main rule to remember in general after a big meal is to avoid lying down or sleeping. By staying upright, gravity helps the stomach push food into the small intestine, making digestion easier. However, if you lie down right away, you may experience heartburn and discomfort.

Hydration is always important, but it's even more beneficial after a big meal. Water aids digestion and prevents constipation. Try to take small sips before, during, and after meals.

In addition, before bed you can choose a chamomile, ginger or peppermint tea which can soothe the digestive system and reduce bloating. /CNA
