Celebrated everywhere whether you are Irish or not, St. Patrick’s Day is one of the busiest days of the year for most bars and restaurants. If you’re heading out to your favorite Irish pub this weekend to enjoy traditional food, drinks and Celtic music, be prepared to relieve that inevitable upset stomach or heartburn the next morning with these natural Boiron medicines. Acidil relieves heartburn, acid indigestion and upset stomach*, while Gasalia relieves bloating, pressure and pain associated with gas.* Both are available in quick-dissolving tablets. If you experience nausea and an upset stomach from overindulgence in food and drink, as well as hangover symptoms,* try Nux vomica pellets. Nux also works well when you feel a bit drowsy after a heavy meal, or if you tend to eat too much spicy or rich food.
How will you celebrate St. Patrick’s Day? Share your favorite spots or traditions with us, as well as your own healthy recovery tips. And here are some fun facts from Discovery News about the holiday’s traditions:
– 850,000 people attend the St. Patrick’s Day parade in Boston each year. That’s almost 22 times the capacity of Fenway Park.
– 83% of U.S. adults will wear green this year on St. Patrick’s Day. Shoulder to shoulder, those 102 million people would stretch from California to New York four times.
– 1 in 161 Americans is named Patrick. That’s almost two million people—more than the entire population of Dublin, Ireland.
– An estimated 13,000,000 pints of Guinness are consumed around the world on St. Patrick’s Day. That’s enough beer to fill 60% of the Empire State Building.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day from all of us here at Boiron!
