Is eating healthy foods at work difficult for you? We know your workday must be hectic, and often you only have time to eat something quick in front of your computer. When we have no time to eat, we often choose foods high in sugar and fat, especially fast food, sandwiches and processed and ready-made meals. But there’s something you have to know, your body craves vitamins and minerals, and this need remains unsatisfied by poor food choices. That is why supplying the body with healthy, nutrient-dense foods is very important, especially at work. Research has shown that diet, exercise and stress influence each other. In other words, how and what you eat dramatically affects your stress levels, which is why incorporating healthy nutrition into your workday is important. Planning a healthy lunch and having healthy snacks on hand reduces stress and gives you the energy to get through your day.
