Helpful Nutrition Tips for A HEALTHY SUMMER Kick off your summer with these dieting tips
Summer weekends at the beach, backyard barbecues, and outdoor dinners are finally here, but these gatherings are often loaded with high- calorie pasta salads, chips, ice cream, cocktails and beers. Enjoy your warm weather favorites while keeping your nutrition in check with the tips below. 1. DRINK GREEN TEA INSTEAD OF SWEET TEA. Green tea has a natural component that helps speed up your metabolism. Skip the box tea and opt for the brew-it-yourself with boiling water and a tea- bag-type tea. 2. SERVE SEAFOOD. Summer is the ideal time to get the freshest catch from your local grocer. Grill salmon, tuna, lobster, steamer clams, and calamari for a low-calorie, protein-packed lunch or dinner. 3. DON’T SKIP BREAKFAST. When you wake up in themorning, your body is running on fumes. Eating a breakfast with protein, carbs, and healthy fat kicks yourmetabolism into high gear and provides energy for the day. 4. ENJOY SUMMERFRUITSANDVEGGIES. It’s easy to sink into a vegetable rut, eating the same boring veggies week after week, but with summer comes fresh choices. Including a mix of in-season colorful
veggies in yourmeals gives your body a nutrient kick.
5. SNACKATWORK. Bring snacks towork and graze throughout the day. When you eat more often—five to six times per day—you’re far less likely to overeat and more likely to stay energized. 6. HYDRATEOFTEN. The summer heat makes you more susceptible to dehydration. Start off your day by drinking two glasses of water and keep drinking at eachmeal, as well as before and after your workout, to stay hydrated. Carry a water bottle with you as a reminder to stay hydrated. 7. RECOVER WITH A POST-WORKOUT SHAKE. After exercising, blend your favorite summer fruits and a scoop of whey protein into a shake to kickstart themuscle-building process, help your body recover from training, and boost your energy levels. 8. PRE-PLANYOURMEALS. Youplan your weekend getaways and activities for summer. Why not your meals? Make it easy by preparing all of your food on Sunday so that you have enough meals for the week. The best part: You’ll save money.
