So, can you be "rolled" out from under the Christmas tree again because it was once again far too much of a good thing? It's the same every year during the festive season: we eat too much, too hearty, too greasy, too sweet and don't hold back on the alcohol. And every year afterwards, the groaning New Year's resolution is: "Next year will be different!" That's a good thing. But for this year, Krone+ has the best tips on how to survive these "food days".

They know what needs to be done.
