ENDS GASSINESS: A soothing stretch
Farm-fresh produce keeps you healthy and energized, but the uptick in plant sugars and fiber can double the risk of gassiness. Thankfully, University of Miami researchers have an easy fix—the “wind-relieving” yoga pose. It calms pain nerves and improves gastric movement to release gas buildup, plus cut future flares by 70% if you do it daily. To do: Lie on your back, inhale and pull your right knee to your chest as you exhale, lifting your chin to your right knee; hold for 1 minute, taking deep breaths. Repeat with left leg, then both legs at the same time.
