✈️ Navigating Holiday Travel With Functional Nutrition

Traveling for the holidays doesn’t have to leave you bloated, exhausted, or rundown—just a few simple functional habits can keep your digestion, energy, and immunity strong on the road (especially with kids in tow).

Easy Digestion Hacks While Traveling:
• Prioritize warm foods + drinks (your gut loves warmth).
• Pack ginger chews or peppermint tea for on-the-go digestion. peppermint
• Get up and walk for 2–3 minutes every hour to keep things moving.

Protein & Hydration on the Road:
• Start every travel morning with a protein-rich meal to stabilize energy.
• Bring portable options: jerky, protein packets, yogurt, hard-boiled eggs.
• Sip electrolytes or mineral-rich water to stay hydrated during flights or long drives.
Immune Support for Moms Traveling With Kids:
• Pack vitamin C–rich snacks (clementines, berries, bell peppers).
• Focus on hand hygiene + nasal moisture (dry sinuses = less defense).
• Prioritize sleep the night before AND after travel to reset your immune system.

What’s one functional habit you’re bringing with you on your holiday travels this year? Let us know in the comments.

🔥 Arpella Titleist Performance Program Success Story Spotlight – Michael Just Had The Season Of A Lifetime🔥

Every now and then, a story rolls into our inbox that makes our entire team high-five like we just won the Masters.

This one? Oh… it’s that kind of story.

Meet Michael—a high school golfer who came through our Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) Movement Performance Programming here at Arpella. And let’s just say… the kid didn’t just play this season. He erupted. Here is the email I just received from his parent and I had to share such great success:

“Hi Mitch!
I hope this finds you and the family doing well! I thought you would enjoy knowing about
Michael’s amazing high school season! The team went undefeated & won counties, districts, & STATES!!! States was held at University of Maryland course & after day 1 they were in second by one stroke. Day 2 they ended up winning by 15 strokes! Michael placed 13th in the tourney. The team will compete at the high school nationals at Pinehurst this summer. Which means we will definitely have to get in some more sessions in 2026!
Thank you for all your help. Michael was able to pick up the pattern that the more consistent he was with his program the better his game was.”

🏆 County Champs
🏆 District Champs
🏆 State Champs – by FIFTEEN strokes on Day 2
⛳️ 13th Individually at States
🌲 Pinehurst Bound for High School Nationals

And the best part?

Michael figured out the secret that separates the good from the great:
“The more consistent he was with his program… the better he played.”
(We’d print that on a t-shirt if we could.)

He lifted better.
He rotated better.
He connected patterns better.

Once you feel what optimal movement does for your swing, you don’t go back.
This is the stuff we LOVE. Helping athletes unlock their patterns, sharpen their movement, and compete like they’re built out of rocket fuel… sustainably.

🚀 OPEN ENROLLMENT Titleist Performance Institute Golf Movement Program is LIVE
