It’s November and the holidays are upon us. They are a special time for family, gratitude and celebration, but they can also be a time of increased stress and deviation from our daily routines. Our diet, sleep and exercise routines often change. With that being said…are you aware of your current habits? Is your digestion "normal?" What is your "normal" fiber or water intake was for the day? When things are running smoothly, we don’t tend to give them a second thought. It’s like a furnace… as long as it’s giving us heat we don’t have to think about it. However when the furnace is on the fritz, it becomes a big priority and we can’t stop thinking about it…especially during November in the Midwest! Knowing your normal now helps you listen and change your habits when your digestion no longer feels normal, rather than letting things get worse.
