With more and more people heading back to the office, a stressful workday can mean that healthy eating habits go out the window. When we are busy or stressed, we often reach for foods that are high in sugar and fat, like processed foods, fast food, and ready-made meals. Although these are often convenient options they just are not that healthy.
Here are some simple tips to help you stay on track :
– Plan ahead and create a good routine
– Schedule time for healthy eating
– Don’t skip meals
– Have healthy snacks on hand
– Drink a lot of water
When working, we have an increased need for essential nutrients that is not met by unhealthy eating choices. That’s why it’s important to supply the body with healthy, nutrient-rich foods.
