‘Tis the season for all the festive treats and fun holiday baking!
Tis not the season for gas, bloating, indigestion, heartburn, acid reflux, or diarrhea. At least it shouldn’t be!
With between 80-90% of Americans suffering from some type of gut issue, it’s time for a little treat makeover. Because everyone deserves to enjoy their tasty bites and their gut health too.
The great thing is, it’s totally possible. With a few easy, better-for-you ingredient swaps, you can happily partake in all the food festivities and feel good at the same time. Win, win.
Want even more wins?
Add some Just Thrive Probiotic into your holiday treats. Since the Just Thrive Probiotic is incredibly resistant, you can sprinkle it into whatever you’re making and baking.
It can even be fried or baked up to 455 degrees and still retain 100% potency!
And with each sprinkle, you’re successfully enhancing the health of your digestive tract and combating any oxidative stress on your intestinal lining. Talk about an upgraded treat makeover!
Speaking of makeovers – I bring you these Probiotic Peppermint Bark Brownies.
With a few of those aforementioned better-for-you ingredient swaps and the addition of some Just Thrive Probiotic, this bark definitely received a refreshing upgrade.
Think of the festive Christmas peppermint bark, but in a healthy, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, and paleo form. These won’t be causing any distress to your stomach or health, only happiness to your taste buds.
They’ve got crunch, they’ve got peppermint, they’ve got chocolate, they’ve got holiday cheer, and they’ve got gut-health happiness.
