“This is a great protein-rich snack that will keep you nourished and full!”

Snacks can make or break your healthy eating. Whether you have a specific goal like losing weight, or you just want to eat healthy, it’s important that you plan ahead.

It’s the worst when you’re hungry between meals with no nutritious snacks to eat. This usually happened to me when I was out running errands or when I was at work.

Being a registered nurse, certified personal trainer, and healthy food nut, I knew I had to find good snacks to suggest to others – and to eat myself!

“I began to wonder…did I write detoxes off too soon? Do cleanses really work?”

“Full body detox!” “Cleanse your liver in 3 days!” “The diet to rid your body of toxins!”

Any of this sound familiar?

I’d always written off detoxes and cleanses as scams. In nursing school, I learned that our bodies detoxify themselves. So I figured, “Why do we need a special cleanse to rid our bodies of toxins?”

But as I stumbled across more and more articles about it and people who swore that it worked, I began to wonder…did I write detoxes off too soon? Do cleanses really work?

“Not only is it crazy time efficient, it’ll keep you eating healthy all week!”

Fit means something different to everyone. It comes in all shapes and sizes and is perceived differently depending on your age.

But we can all pretty much agree that when you’re “fit,” it means you’re healthy.

You watch what you eat, you incorporate exercise into your daily life, and thus you have a decent amount of endurance and strength.

Even though fitness can be achieved by different means, there are a few habits most fit people have in common. Many healthy and fit people I know do these things. And it shows!
