Enjoy in moderation

You don’t need to skip the decadent desserts all together - enjoy the seasonal salads, fruit and veggies as well. Balancing holiday treats with healthy foods rich in fibre, vitamins and minerals, and iron is key to helping you feel your best and making the most of the holidays.

Prioritise what’s important

During the holidays, you might find it hard to switch off from work or study and truly relax. Take some time at the beginning of your holidays to set  priorities. Tuning in to yourself and setting intentions for how you want to spend your time off can help you make more balanced choices during the holidays.

Take care of you

The holiday season can be busy, so don’t forget to take some time out for yourself! Take breaks outside of social events to do things that fill your cup; maybe going for a solo swim, reading a book, or doing yoga – whatever helps you nurture your mental wellbeing.

Sometimes taking a break can help restore your energy levels. But, if you’re still feeling tired and fatigued after the holiday break, speak to your doctor about your symptoms.

Feeling ongoing tiredness and fatigue may be symptoms of iron deficiency.1 If your doctor diagnoses you with iron deficiency and recommends a therapeutic oral iron supplement, choose Ferro-grad C®.
