Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!     
Building Resiliency and Celebrating National Snack Food Month:

Get good at reading. Don’t trust the claims of the food’s manufacturer on the front of the package.  Judge whether a food is healthy for you by reading the ingredients and the nutrition information on the food label.

Prepare healthy snacks in advance. When you make something yourself, you get to control the ingredients.  Keep plenty of fresh fruit and veggies in the refrigerator. Cut up melons or vegetables like celery and carrots in advance.

Healthy snacking doesn’t have to be boring. Make it interesting.

Go the caveman way. Try:  Fresh Fruit, Salad & Vegetables. You can also add fish, eggs or meat, or dried Nuts & Fruits

Research shows that people who eat regular meals and healthy snacks are less likely to overeat and gain weight than people who skip meals or go for long periods without eating. Thinking ahead is the key to smart snacking.  So…happy snacking.
