Whilst forging the pass to success, and keeping yourself busy, it’s important to maintain a healthy lifestyle and look after your general well-being; both of which I’m working on improving! I’m also not blessed with the most adventurous palette so have recently been exploring simple snacking options to help me maintain energy levels, improve my focus and support me in feeling the best version of myself throughout the day.
So, although these seem plain and simple…that’s exactly all they need to be. ***I’m no health expert, these are just a few of my favourites…
Warrior Crunch Protein Bar – White Chocolate Crisp
These litte bars taste pretty good, so the issue here is to not eat one after another! Ultra low sugar, and high in protein these are great for recovery and an easy way for clean energy.

Huel Black Edition – Complete Meal Protein Shake – Vanilla
I’m terrible for eating balanced and regular meals throughout the day, so when I’m struggling with time, these shakes are fantastic. Dubbed as ‘elite nutrition’ these taste nice and are a meal in a bottle (without any of the nasty stuff). Ideal.

VIT HIT Immunitea – Dragonfruit and Yuzu
Water for cool kids. High in healthy vitamins, low in sugar, keeps you highdrated and tastes lovely.

ViDrate Electrolyte Sachets
I was recently reccomended these, and can’t get enough. Ultimate highdration on a normal day, and complete hangover avoidance if you have one after a night out! In general, these have been great to help me drink more water…zero sugar, great taste and full of electrolytes and vitamins.

Nuts
Ditch the crisps and opt for some nuts instead. Plenty of options in supermarkets to keep things exciting, and they are full of vitamins, minerals, healthy fats and fibres. Winner!
Hard Boiled Eggs
Low in calories and a high source of protein. Avoid opening and eating on trains or in small, busy places…
Snacking Fruits
Quick and easy, zero preperation. Cucumber sticks, apples and bannanas. They are packed with essential vitamins and minerals, and studies have shown that a diet rich in fruit and vegetables lower the risk of things such as heart disease, strokes and diabetes. So seems pretty sensible to me!
Morning Smoothie
I’ve been on my smoothie journey for a while now…and if I’m honest, to make them yourself it’s a bit of a faff but definately worth it if you have a spare 5minutes on a morning. Have prepped in your freezer a mix of spinach, mango, kale, avocado, ginger and lemon zest. Then blast in a blender with some orange juice…job done!
