Who doesn’t love hitting the road with some friends and family over the summer? Taking a trip together can be fun, but it can also be a bit more stressful if you’re focusing on making better nutritional choices. How is it possible to stay healthy on a road trip with so many delicious options along the way? Packing healthy snacks, natural nutritional supplements, and the right tools can help make for a road trip free from regret.

How to Stay Healthy on a Road Trip This Summer

HEALTHY SNACKS PERFECT FOR A ROAD TRIP

Part of your road-trip preparations is making sure that you’ve got snacks and beverages to keep you satisfied on the road. You’ll be able to control what you eat if you pack for yourself, and you’ll have a hard time going wrong with options like fruit, vegetables, nuts, and jerkies. Snacks that have little or no added sugars and higher protein content will help provide natural energy to get you through yet another game of I Spy.

THERE’S AN APP FOR THAT

The surefire way to ensure that you’re not going off-course with your nutritional plan is to use an app that helps you count calories and stay on top of what you eat. Counting calories will keep you within your daily recommended intake, and some apps offer the ability to track macronutrients so that you can make sure you’re getting enough vitamins and minerals.

FILL THE GAPS WITH NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENTS

Even if you’re tailoring your road trip to your needs with healthier snacks, you may notice that you’re coming up short of essential nutrients that your body needs. Nutritional supplements from Standard Process can help ensure that you’re getting must-haves like zinc, iron, calcium, and any number of vitamins. Plus, these supplements can help boost your natural energy, help you get to sleep, and tamp down your travel anxiety.
