These meals are usually copious and forceful, accompanied by sweets and desserts typical of these parties along with alcohol and tobacco, causing heavy digestion among other gastrointestinal discomfort.

In addition, these holidays also leave us with a few extra kilos when we get on the scale. And it is that with a few days many holidays are concentrated, therefore, many meals and extra meals that are not usually done the rest of the year.
