Keep bubble guts at bay with this DIY tummy remedy kit.

The holidays are full of rich, indulgent foods, sweet treats and second helpings — which can sometimes lead to discomfort and a noisy digestive system.

Whether you’re heading to someone else’s home or hosting people in yours, a simple care kit can help provide relief to everyone. Bring your own in a small toiletry bag, or set out a few of each item in a guest bathroom so everyone can discreetly grab what they need.

Keeping you and your guests feeling good means you can focus on what matters most: enjoying the food, friends and family.

Watch this video for tips on what to pack in a tummy relief kit.

Stop the bubble guts

Some may say those bubble gut gurgles are your stomach applauding the chef, but they can also be pretty embarrassing.

Relief kit to the rescue! Your kit should include:

  • Antacids for heartburn or acid reflux after spicy or heavy dishes.
  • Lactaid if you’re sensitive to dairy but can’t resist a creamy casserole or dessert.
  • Gas relief tablets because it happens to the best of us.
  • Floss picks for discreetly handling that spinach or poppy seed situation.
  • Matches, perfumes or toilet spray to mask odors. (Keep reading for a DIY solution!)
  • Pain relievers like Tylenol and Ibuprofen.
  • Electrolyte hydration packs.
  • Stain stick to clean up any cranberry or gravy marks left on your shirt.
  • Extra toilet paper within reach.

Consider also bringing a comfortable change of clothes, like your favorite super-stretchy pants or cozy shoes, in case the festivities stretch into the evening or you’re lulled in by the siren song of a post-turkey nap.

Homemade poo pourri spray

Everybody poops, but not everyone wants to deal with the odors that come along with it.

Watch this video to see how to make your own toilet spray.

Spritzing the water in the toilet bowl with a spray before you go can work wonders for masking odors.

All you need to do is mix equal parts water and rubbing alcohol, then add a few drops of your favorite essential oil. Keep the mixture in a small spray bottle within reach, and you’ll be good to go anytime you need to… go.

You can also fight odor by turning on the vent or cracking open a window to help circulate air.

Bathrooms might be a good place to snag a moment of peace and quiet, but lingering on the throne only lets odors build, so flush promptly.
