Work Snacks 101
We all know that time of the day when our stomachs start
grumbling. Lunch is hours behind us,
fatigue starts to set in and we need some sustenance to get us through the rest
of the day. Unfortunately, we often turn
to unhealthy choices: chips, pop, candy and other fatty or sugary snacks. These food items, although tasty, can bring
on more hunger, less energy and even extra weight. Stay healthy this week and try a few of these
simple alternatives:
·
Peanut
butter and jelly sandwich- A pretty obvious choice. The key with this snack is to buy healthy
peanut butter. It may cost a few dollars
extra, but the numerous health benefits outweigh the price difference.
·
Almonds-These
wonderful nuts are packed with protein, or energy, and are a healthy alternative
to a majority of vending machine snacks.
·
Apple or
Orange-The natural sugars in fruit can help propel you through the
end of the day.
·
Protein
shake-Protein shakes do not have to cost you an arm and a
leg. There are a multitude of affordable
options at your local grocery store.
Most of these powders can be mixed easily with water and they come in a
variety of flavors.
·
Simple
sandwich- What is a simple sandwich?
It is meat, a slice of healthy cheese and bread. Stay away from mayonnaise, mustard and other
condiments. A small sandwich should give
you enough energy to type a few more emails before the final bell rings.
Happy snacking!
