The end of the year is an exciting time - family gatherings, holiday parties, new and old traditions. For many it also brings stress and illness as we manage the pressure of getting it all done with wanting everything to be perfect for our families and loved ones. The endless culinary temptations can zap our energy as we come down from those sugar highs, which can lead to eating more to keep from crashing. This can not only create guilt and added stress but also the increase in sugar has a negative effect on our immune system. How often can you remember being sick or completely run down during the holidays? It's likely not just bad luck. With a few adjustments you can feel great and enjoy every part of the holiday season.
