WHEN TRAVELING, HOW DO YOU EAT WELL?

Eating healthy while traveling is truly a challenge, but it does need not to be impossible. If you plan ahead and control the situation, rather than be at the mercy of airport/airline food (or non-food), you will be far better off!

It is important to know that while traveling, you should eat light, drink plenty of water and skip alcohol and caffeine.

Hint: Bring your own food! I like to take along some of my favorite healthy snacks - easy to fit in a carry-on or in my purse - like brown rice crackers, almonds, dried fruit, high quality meal replacement bars, fresh cut veggies, etc. I drink plenty of bottled water. Then, when I arrive at my destination, depending on the time of course, I may go to a restaurant and eat the most nutritious meal I can find on the menu. Or, I might make a healthy shake in my hotel room with my little portable blender that I travel with - I add bottled water and a packet of nutritious shake mix I've packed. I even add some flax seed that I brought along in a zip lock baggie.

You don't need to sacrifice good nutrition to have a good time! It is a choice to eat healthy when you travel.
