If you’re having a good summer, you’re busy searching for swimming holes, hiking new trails, and making the most of the long days and warm weather. You’ll need adequate nutrition for all these adventures. Luckily, eating healthy, even on the go, doesn’t have to be complicated.
“There’s a lot of conflicting advice out there, which makes it difficult for people to know what’s truly healthy,” says Becky LaChance, a registered nurse, fitness trainer and nutritionist who specializes in providing simple advice to an active audience . “I don’t believe in restriction diets or fads. Instead, it’s about making small, 1 percent better choices every day and fueling yourself efficiently for workouts or long work days. I like recipes that are easy to prepare and nutritious with minimal ingredients.
This is where Isopure protein powders come in handy. They contain 100% pure whey protein isolates, which helps meet daily protein needs for a well-balanced life. Isopure Infusions, with their refreshing fruity flavor, are ideal for hot summer days. It contains 20 grams of whey protein isolate in each scoop and contains no fat, artificial flavors or added sugar. LaChance also likes Isopure Zero/Low Carb Protein: With 25 grams of whey protein isolate per serving, it’s a great addition to smoothies and other recipes.
“I work with many healthcare workers who need quick, healthy options to fuel their demanding shifts,” says LaChance. “That’s why Isopure is perfect. With minimal ingredients and a high protein content, it’s easy to pack in a work bag and makes a great mid-morning or late afternoon snack to get protein on-the-go.
