These days, our schedules are filled to the brim- work, family, friends... every minute of our day is filled with activity! Sometimes eating a healthy meal takes a backseat to a quick run to the vending machine, a speedy pack of cookies or a swift snatch at a bag of potato chips. How can you eat healthy while on the run?
The next time you're at the supermarket, put these items in your cart:
- pumpkin seeds- high in zinc and magnesium
- raisins- high in Vit.C and potassium
- strawberries- high in Vit. C, copper and fluorine
- soy crackers- healthier than potato chips
- granola bars- healthier than cookies
also include sandwich, ziplock bags!
Make up three ziplock bags of your "new' snacks for each work day and every day put them in your pocketbook, briefcase, knapsack. This will help you to avoid those runs to wherever unhealthy snacks live! *smiles* The increased energy level these snacks provide, will help you make it until you can sit down in front of a healthy, balanced meal.
Just because our schedules are jammed packed, doesn't mean we must miss out on healthy nutrients! Snack soundly and enjoy that healthy home cooked meal as soon as you can exhale!
