Holidays are upon us and you know what that means. Loads of pumpkin pies, cranberry desserts, gingerbread puddings, and a lot of turkey among many other delicacies.

Luckily, you have the metabolism of a horse and you know that even after eating all of that delicious stuff, you are going to get back in shape in probably no time at all. But what about the people who indulge a little too much but don't have it in them to stay the same? Their diet goes for a toss and their workout regime also suffers. Needless to say, they are more prone to gaining a lot more fat and stubborn weight around their waist. They become a victim of their own eating habits within a very short time span. Well, there are a few vitamins and supplements that can be beneficial for such individuals.

But First, Let's Have a Look at A Few Outcomes That Holiday Indulgence May Cause

• Your meal timings getting out of hand 
• Sleep cycle going awry for the longest time
• Workout routine taking a back seat 
• Spending a disproportionate amount of time on social media 
• Overspending on gifts, accessories, household items, and the like
• Drinking way too much champagne or wine
• Enjoying fried foods a little too much (bad for cholesterol)
• Opening doors to hypertension/blood pressure, increased sugar levels

These outcomes are very common among people who take holidays a little too lightly and give in to their spontaneous cravings. However, it is very easy to recover from these issues before things get out of hand. 

7 Supplements That You Should Shop For As Soon As the Holidays Begin

1. B Vitamins

This is going to be the first thing that comes to your mind because these vitamins help your liver metabolize excess alcohol. If you want to make sure that you do not wake up with a bad headache the next morning, invest in a good quality vitamin B supplement today. B-complex is also good for immunity, and mood swings, and gets you healthier skin and nails.

2. Magnesium

Magnesium is a very critical mineral and doctors recommend at least 80 to 240 mg for children, 300 to 360 mg for women, and around 420 mg for men. There are various magnesium-enriched bottled hydrogen water brands today in the market that make it easier for you to supplement with this mineral. This combination helps you deal better with your daily physical stress and can prove to be healthy for your blood sugar levels as well. Adequate magnesium coupled with hydrogen molecules and water also keeps you well hydrated which is important for better muscle functioning. It is also critical if you want to regain strength and stay active and energized throughout the day.

3. N-Acetylcysteine

A lot of people have not heard about this supplement but it is highly beneficial for the liver. It is a very strong antioxidant and promotes detoxification of the body. NAC as it is popularly known, is a precursor to glutathione which is a naturally found detoxification molecule in the human body. Again, in the context of alcohol and junk food consumption during the holiday season, it proves to be a great support for your body and immunity. 

4. Castor Oil

Have you ever used castor oil right after your shower? Try it daily for at least 3 months and you will notice how magical it can be. The consistency of castor oil is such that it forms a protective layer on your skin. Therefore, it is advised to use it after you get out of the shower. Do not rub your face with a towel but just pat it dry gently. Now take a few drops of organic castor oil and rub it into the skin of your face in an upward motion. This helps you combat breakouts, blemishes, redness, inflammation, and fine lines as a result of your holiday indulgences and everyday stress.

5. Herbal Tea

The best time to consume herbal tea is anytime you want. These herbs help you get rid of indigestion, bloating, inflammation, and even constipation in many cases. The right blend may contain any ingredient that you choose to put into it such as sweet basil, rose petal extract, black pepper, lemon juice, cloves, and fennel. Herbal tea is a great way to detoxify your body after you have consumed countless pounds of holiday food. It also helps you rectify your sleep cycle which may get disrupted during the festive season.

6. Activated Charcoal

Another very powerful health supplement is activated charcoal which is helpful in trapping the toxins present in your body very easily. If you suffer from hangover symptoms, headache, or any kind of toxic reaction due to overindulgence, this supplement can quickly flush out your system leaving it clean and energized. If you are allergic to proteins such as casein and gluten, activated charcoal is the supplement you can trust.

7. BCAA

BCAA stands for branched chain amino acids and these are not only for bodybuilders or gym rats. Your body can make some of the amino acids on its own but there are a few that it cannot produce. If you have been involved in extensive decorating activities or probably have undertaken some sort of repair work in your house for the holidays, bcaa is going to prove very beneficial. It helps in muscle recovery and promotes muscle growth as well. It also helps ease soreness in your body and reduces muscle fatigue significantly.
