I have exciting news! I’m now a certified gut-health skin-health specialist through the Skin Nutrition Institute !

This is exactly what I’ve been studying on my own the last 3 years, and now I have found a way to deepen my understanding of the gut-skin axis and really help people with their skin and gut issues. I’m so excited to start sharing everything I learned, and continue to learn with my clients and in my membership that is launching this month!
Big things are happening for Realistic Wellness, for me and for YOU, so I hope you are as excited as me!

If you have acid reflux, Thanksgiving can be Intimidating, but here are a few tips to help prevent flares and enjoy your meal.

•Take calming breaths before eating to soothe the vagus nerve

•Eat smaller portions so you don’t over fill your stomach and put pressure on the LES- you can always have more later.

•Let food digest before having more ( even though it’s delicious!)

•If you do decide to have alcohol, try to have a smaller amount, or dilute it with water and consume it AFTER there is food in the stomach

•Don’t wear clothing that will put pressure on the abdomen

•Make sure you stay hydrated to help digestion

•Take digestive enzymes with your meal

•If possible take a walk after eating to help move digestion

•Avoid sitting in positions that involve bending at the waist to prevent abdominal pressure ( which allows acid to come back up)

Just because you have reflux doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy your holiday meal, you just have to be strategic. I hope everyone has a safe and happy Thanksgiving.

I’m planning on doing a shoe giveaway this month before I lose the discount at work. I think it will be a good way to help out of someone is in need of a new pair of shoes.
I will be giving away 1 pair of women’s shoes size 11, men’s size 11, one boys shoe and one girls shoe. It is based on inventory we have since our job is closing we have only a certain amount of shoes left.

As a woman with a larger foot, I know the difficulty of finding shoes! That’s why I chose an 11.
More information will be in my next vlogs so make sure you watch if you are in need of a new pair of sneakers. 😊
