We know how important it is to eat well to ensure you have the nutrients you need for good he alth. However, daily life can create obstacles that slow us down or prevent us from adopting he althy eating habits.
Instead of putting off making changes until tomorrow, here are some simple tips to get you on the right track today.
To have on hand
- Keep ground flaxseeds in the refrigerator and add them to soy or almond puddings to increase the amount of dietary fibre, to increase our intake of omega- 3, but mostly because it just tastes good!
- Put some frozen fruit on the grocery list, as it comes in handy when you’re out of fresh fruit. Add to yogurt or Bircher müesli which can be prepared up to 48 hours in advance.
- Prepare several boiled eggs since they will keep for up to a week in the refrigerator. They are a versatile, inexpensive and delicious source of protein!

Lunch at Work
Having foods in the pantry that can be easily brought to work is a good solution for rushed mornings. You still have to take the time to sit down to fully savor the food. Here are some great food ideas for when you're on the run: fruit compotes no added sugar, seeds, nuts and almonds, low s alt and fat whole grain crackers, containers of UHT milk or vegetarian drinkssingle serving, etc.
You can prepare a portion of oat flakes the day before in a container that is easy to transport. The next day, simply add the hot liquid. A piece of cheese, hemp seeds and a fruit rich in vitamin C like clementineor the strawberries complete the whole thing!
Another idea: put cereal and milk each in an airtight container. Add a fruit and get to work!
Just for inspiration
On weekends, to break up the monotony, make family pancakes made with whole grain flour and flakes. Add blueberries or raspberries and yogurt with a little syrupspiced maple syrup with cardamom.
Leave the buckwheat in a container filled with water overnight. When you wake up, rinse it and top it with nut butter, chia seeds, cocoa and fruit.
Taking a multivitamin when dietary intake is insufficient is a simple habit to adopt to help maintain good he alth.
Another tip: Prepare the lunch table in the evening. Here's an old trick that reminds us of moms and grandmas!
