The negative effects of holiday overindulgence include indigestion, constipation, acid reflux, stomach pain, and turning pale with swollen bellies. Because of their anti-inflammatory, digestive, and other advantageous qualities, herbs and spices can aid in combating the aftereffects of overindulgence.

During the holiday season, we frequently tend to indulge in rich, high-calorie sweets, fatty snacks, and hearty meals in moderation. Bloating, gas, indigestion, and swelling are the results. 

Bursting with flavor and goodness: Herbs are the verdant, leafy sections of flavor-packed plants, such as basil, coriander, curry, or bay leaves; spices are the pungent seeds, roots, flower buds (clove), or even tree bark, such as cinnamon. 

Spice attack: Some of the immune-boosting foods that are good for the stomach include ginger, turmeric, cumin, ajwain (carrom or caraway seeds), asafoetida, cinnamon, cardamom, and pepper. Including them in the meals aids in system regulation. 

Herbal assistance: Herbs help to maintain the general health of the stomach and regulate bowel movements. Nutritionist Devendra Pandey offers the following advice on incorporating herbs into your diet: "Drink coriander water as it supports digestive enzymes and juices." Add curry leaves to your food.
