For some of us the festive season can be the most gruelling event on the calendar and Surviving these wild times, as Bear Grylls knows, is all about preparation.

The festive season is usually particularly problematic for those of us who take their nutrition and exercise seriously whether it’s the big high calorie meals, the parties, alcohol or general lack of structure in your week, it’s very easy to lose your way
in December which is why we put together some resources to help you minimise the festive ‘damage’ and help you maintain your physique and health, while still enjoying the party season.

Our newsletter looks at three things:

1. What you can do to keep your eating on track

2. What you can do to keep your fitness on track

3. What you can do to keep your alcohol intake on track

We have then produced three cheat sheets on:

1. Booze Busters explores the impact of alcohol on your body and how you can reduce the toll it takes on you physically

2. Hangover Food Super-Heroes looks at how to replenish lost nourishment the day after a heavy night

3. Hangover-Smashing Smoothies – three specially concocted smoothies to help get you back on your feet, the morning after the night before.

In our Booze Busters bulletin we review what we know about alcohol including why it’s fattening, how our body burns alcohol calories and which drinks we should choose to reduce the toll on our liver.

In our Hangover Food Super-Heroes, we discuss 10 of the best foods that are scientifically proven to help your body recover. We explain why each food on our list is important and how it can benefit your body in the aftermath of a big night.

And lastly, we’ve concocted three recipes that will help you get back on your feet as quickly as possible the ‘morning after’!
