The digestive system is where vitamins, nutrients and minerals are absorbed.Factors such as stress, lack of sleep, antibiotics, illness, aging and poor diet choices can often lead to an imbalance of the bacteria in your digestive tract. Maintaining a a healthy digestive system any time of year can be quite challenging, especially during the holiday season with typical eating patterns. Consuming an abundance of rich and indulgent foods compromises our digestive health by flooding our bodies with large amounts of fat and sugar. High fat holiday foods not only stay in the digestive system longer, but also cause more stomach acid to be produced, which can lead to gastric reflux and other issues
