How to be smart about eating on the run

We’re a society of busy people who are almost always on the run. And oftentimes, taking the time to enjoy a nutritional meal or snack is placed at the bottom of our priority lists.

Consequently, when you’re out, you may drive into the nearest fast food restaurant to grab a quick meal or snack to keep you going. And, while this may make you happy for the moment, the longterm effect it has your body is not good at all.

The average fast food meal has more calories than you even want to think about, and it’s loaded with sodium and sugars that can wreak havoc on every system in your body.

Here’s what you can do instead...

The next time you leave home for an extended period of time, I encourage you to grab a Permalean Protein Bar. It’s a delicious energy bar that’s high in protein, low in carbs, and unlike the bars you find in most drug and health food stores, is 100% natural!

These bars are also very low in sugar and in calories and include no preservatives or toxins. With flavors like Chocoholic Chocolate and Stark Raving Peanutz, you know you’re in for a real treat!

Another tip for healthy eating on the run is one we’ve learned from our customers. Several of them have told us that they make a protein shake, using our whey protein powder, and carry it out with them when they’re going out. (Most keep it in the convenient blender bottle that you can get when you order the powder.)

If they plan to be out long, some keep the blender bottle in a small cooler, while other customers tell us that they store the shake in a thermos to help keep it cool. Then when they’re ready for it, they have the benefits of a tasty, energy-boosting chocolate or vanilla shake right at their disposal.

So, you see, there are easy ways you can eat on the run without doing damage to your blood sugar level, your waistline, or your overall health – and your taste buds don’t have to suffer for it. You just have to do a little planning ahead.
