Leading UK health and wellness brand Natures Zest is encouraging people to take care of their gut health during the festive season, a time known for indulgent feasts and dietary changes.
Research shows that seasonal habits such as increased food consumption and stress can lead to digestive discomfort. With recent studies finding that 86% of UK adults reported experiencing a gastrointestinal issue within the past year, Natures Zest has emphasised the importance of being mindful of what we consume during this season.
Jason Layton, Director at Natures Zest, stated: “Christmas is often celebrated with indulgent feasts, gatherings filled with rich foods, and a plethora of festive treats. While these traditions bring joy and togetherness, they can also lead to discomfort and digestive issues for many.
“At Natures Zest, we believe that understanding this connection is vital for maintaining health during this celebratory time of year, especially as studies have found that the prevalence of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) in the UK has risen in recent years.”
Natures Zest has shared practical tips to help people navigate the season without sacrificing enjoyment.
Jason added: “Moderation is key—indulge in festive foods, but avoid overloading your digestive system. Drink plenty of water to aid digestion and balance rich meals, and ensure fruits and vegetables are part of your plate to support healthy digestion.
“We also recommend considering supplements for additional support. Our affordable products are designed to empower individuals to manage their digestive health and fully enjoy Christmas without discomfort.”
Natures Zest is a UK leading vitamin and supplement brand and works with customers to make quality health and wellness accessible to all. The company stocks a wide range of digestive health and probiotic supplements up to 100bn CFU, as well as some single strain probiotics which can help alleviate temporary digestive issues associated with sudden diet changes that occur around Christmas.
