Late dinners, early alarms, jet lag. Your digestive system loves routine, and you've just thrown it into free fall.
Try: eat within an hour of waking. It helps trigger your natural "go" signal. Skip it, and things... linger.
How we help: We like to work fast - without the uncomfortable urgency that can come with harsh laxatives. In fact, 79% of participants in our consumer trial had a satisfying poo within just 24 hours*.
Cabin air is dehydrating. Airport wine, even more so.
When you're dehydrated, your body pulls more water from waste in the colon, leaving stools hard and stubborn.
How we help: Every serving is mixed with at least 300ml of water, helping kickstart your daily hydration goals. Plus, magnesium citrate helps draw water into the bowel to support softer, easier-to-pass stools.
Public bathrooms, shared villa loos, a romantic getaway where you'd rather suffer in silence - many of us delay going on holiday. Do it often enough and your body can become less responsive to the urge.
Try: give yourself a quiet, pressure-free window in the morning to do your business.
How we help: A consistent morning serving (ideally at least 30 minutes before breakfast) helps support your body's natural rhythm, so you're less likely to miss the moment when your gut comes calling.
Unholy alarms, airport queues, inevitably forgetting your favourite outfit - even relaxing holidays can raise stress levels, which may slow gut movement.
Try: relax like your poos depend on it. Because they actually do.
How we help: Our formula combines magnesium with ginger and peppermint extracts, which help support healthy digestion and digestive comfort when holiday chaos starts creeping in.
Holiday diets are often lower in fibre than your normal routine. Less fibre means less bulk moving through your bowel and fewer reasons for your gut to get things going.
Try: sneak some fruit, veg, nuts or wholegrains into the breakfast buffet lineup.
Holiday poo insurance: Start every morning with one stick of 01. Bowel + Bloat Relief mixed with at least 300ml of water or juice. Hydration, magnesium (meeting 100% of your daily recommended intake) and digestive-supporting botanicals help keep things moving, wherever you're waking up.
