Making nutrition work for any work scenario

Do you feel a twinge of guilt when you sneak off to the local fast food joint for a cheap and fast lunch? You know the extra fat and calories aren't the best choices you can make, but who has time to make a healthy lunch before work? Even if you work from home, unhealthy choices often beat out healthy ones because it's faster to zap a frozen burrito than to cook a meal from scratch. Though making nutrition work at work does require a conscious effort, making healthier choices is both beneficial and easier than you may think.

 

Healthy snacks to keep on hand at work

Whether you work from home, at an office, on a job site, or on the road, you will get hungry at some point. When you do, you'll be more likely to make healthy choices if you have healthy options available. Make a point of keeping plenty of healthy snacks on hand and satisfying those cravings without guilt.

November is National Health Food Month    

 

National Health Food Month is a good time to make eating healthy a priority. In Canada, natural health and organic products are federally regulated and safe. That's good news, as more than 70% of Canadians use health food products and buy organic foods.

 

Cooking healthy meals as a family is also an excellent way to impart to your children an appreciation for nutritious foods and a joy for cooking. Ask your spouse or children for their input and help in the kitchen. You may be surprised at their enthusiasm!   

 

We can help you and your family develop healthy eating habits by calling 1 866 833-7690 or visiting workhealthlife.com
