Mixstirs Healthy Lifestyle Smoothies

For Active Lifestyles On The Go!

Convenience Can Be Healthy Too

Try these quick-grab prepared foods that pump up your health:

  1. Smoothies – Those made with whole fruits, vegetables and yogurt are full of antioxidants, fiber, and calcium.
  2. Mini Yogurt Packs – Yogurt has 100 more milligrams of calcium per serving than milk. Go for those with no added sugar.
  3. Trail Mix – Dried fruits are full of antioxidants. And nuts offer vitamin E, protein and healthy fats. Both are high in calories, so a small handful will do.
  4. Frozen Fruits and Vegetables – They’re processed at the peak of freshness.
  5. Instant Oatmeal – High in fiber and iron, this whole grain beats back heart disease. Skip the flavored, sugary packs.
  6. Whole Grain Cereals and Frozen Waffles –  Fiber-rich whole grains offer lots of nutrients like cancer-fighting selenium and heart-healthy potassium and magnesium.
  7. Low-Sodium, Low-Fat Soups – Try vegetable, bean, or chicken noodle for about 90-170 calories per cup, 2 grams of fat, and 90-470 milligrams of sodium (your daily limit should hover at 2,300 milligrams of sodium).
  8. Nut Butters – Add cashew or almond butter to your peanut butter routine. They’re full of healthy unsaturated oils and protein – but watch the calories.
