Summer Nutrition Tips

Summer can be a challenging time to stay on track with your nutrition. Backyard bbq’s, high sugar beverages and alcohol tend to sabotage our diet and increase waistlines! Follow a few of these simple tips to stay on track:
Enjoy Fresh Seasonal Fruits and Vegetables. Berries, melons and greens are packed with nutrients and also help to keep you hydrated.
Choose fresh garden salads to compliment grilled meats in place of high fat potato and mayo based salads.
Stay hydrated with water and a slice of lemon or lime in place of high sugar juices and coolers. Try a berry tea on ice.
Enjoy raw vegetable platters with hummus in place of chips and high fat dips.
Practice portion control and avoid overeating.
Summer fun is often food based. Allow your fun to be in the form of healthy plant based season foods and reward yourself with the occasional piece of organic chocolate or frozen yogurt.
Summer is an excellent time to start a management program….make your appointment with me today and receive a free ION Foot Detox with your session.
In good health,
