Eat healthy while on the move

Eating healthy while traveling is truly a challenge but need not be impossible. While traveling we can’t put our current healthy diet on the back burner. Can we?
Here, I’m giving you various tips to ensure good nutrition and healthy eating while on the road. You don’t need to sacrifice good nutrition to have a good time! You can choose to eat healthy when you travel.
The best way is to pack a brown bag full of goodies. Raw fruits and vegetables, string cheese, bottled or boxed juices and nuts are some delicious choices. Other healthy food choices while traveling are energy bars, peanut butter crackers, raisins, and trail mix.
Try to stick with foods that are easy on the tummy, like bread, bananas, crackers, and yogurt. The small boxes of cereal make good snacks.
Eating on Airplanes:
While we fly, we are exposed to many stressors such as poor air quality, dehydration, and germ exposure, a variety of chemicals, extended sitting and inactivity. Can we afford to take further stress from eating the wrong foods and drinks? Obviously we can’t.
It’s no big deal to get a healthy meal while traveling by plane. Food portions on airlines are extremely small but some are still loaded with calories. Instead of eating what you’re offered you can order something different. You can order a kosher meal, vegetarian dinner, low-fat selections and even low-cholesterol choices.
You can pack your own food from home if it’s a short flight. Even if it’s a lengthy flight you can choose foods that can be kept for long. You can ask for drinks like juice or milk while on the plane.
We need to take extra special care of our bodies when we travel. I’m sure these tips will help you maintain your diet no matter where you go. Have a safe and great trip!
