Natural health: 'I'm dreading the rich food over Christmas'; 'I'm breastfeeding and have developed mastitis

I am dreading the rich food over Christmas which is hard to avoid when you’re staying with relatives who love to cook. I suffer from heartburn and usually take great care of my diet. Is there something I could take to minimise the damage?

This is a difficult predicament we often find ourselves in during the festive season, made even more challenging by the fact that so much thought, time, and love has gone into the preparation of the food on offer.
