Healthy Treats

I know the idea of not eating junk seems a little sad. I like donuts, chips, fries, etc but I don't eat them. I know that to have a healthy body, it is important that I eat a lot of fruits and veggies. Reaching into your pocket for money to feed the vending machine when you are hungry is tempting but luckily there are a lot of healthy treats that are available on the market. Some of these taste better than the junk you want at snack time, and they are better for you and don't contain unwanted sugar and fat. Sometimes you just need some options. This post will help you to choose the right healthy snack options.

1. Protein Shakes & Protein Bars

I usually wake up excited that it's a new day and I can have my favorite Protein Bar. Some of them are so yummy they taste like a treat! My current fav is the Quest Bar in Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. Be Fit has some fun yummy shakes that you can spice up by adding a touch of strawberry and banana. Yum! Be careful because some of the protein bars and shakes aren't for everyone, they are ideal for people who are not taking enough protein on their diet. I would talk to a fitness expert first though before just adding them into your diet. Sometimes, you only need to take a small amount of these treats if your diet is already packed with protein. Keep in mind that too much protein can provide complications rather than benefits in the long run.

2. Mix Fruits With Protein-Rich Foods

An apple and orange are considered healthy snacks. I like to pair green apples with almond butter. That is my "go to" snack. The protein in these ingredients regulates the sugar in the fruits. I feel satisfied, energized, and good knowing that I made a smart and healthy choice. Know that having adequate protein will make you feel fuller.

3. Greek Yogurt

I can't believe I've gone most of my adult life thinking I didn't like yogurt. I was wrong! I love it! Greek yogurt is so amazing before a workout. It's not heavy and provides me with enough energy to complete an intense workout. Greek yogurt is a great sources of calcium. If you want to improve its taste or just spice it up you can try adding granola, berries, and other fruits. It is a perfect treat that can satisfy both adults and kids.

BeFit: Is it worth the hype?

There are so many nutritional supplements on the market, that for a very long time I did not know what to choose. They all make big promises, but not all of them have the promised benefits. When I was about to give up and I stopped searching for the right supplement, I found BeFit. I was amazed from the first day, and it gets better and better!

The BeFit supplements are powders that can supplement proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins and much more, depending on your needs. Some of the powders are specially designed to provide you with all the energy that you need before a workout, while others will curb your appetite and cravings. In other words, there’s something for anyone!

Like things couldn’t get any better, you can also mix the powder with different ingredients to create a delicious, healthy shake. You will find plenty of recipes on their website, but my absolute favorite is the Orange Yogurt Protein Shake. It takes only two minutes to prepare it; I use ½ cup of  Vanilla Greek Yogurt - Plain Greek Yogurt is fine too, I add 6oz 100% Juice Orange Juice, I add 1 scoop of BeFit WHEY - Vanilla Flavor powder, 6 cubes of  Ice - Use fewer if you prefer it less thick, and I mix them in the blender. Just like that I have the perfect shake to give me energy and strength.

More than this, you can even make sweets with the BeFit powder! Imagine this: you can eat a sweet (yes, sweet, but not unhealthy) snack before you go to the gym and get all the nutrients that you need from it. Isn’t this wonderful?

Now, everything you have to do is to choose the right powder for you and enjoy all the amazing benefits. If you don’t have enough proteins in your diet, a protein powder is what you need. If you want to lose weight, choose the powder that will speed up your metabolism and reduce your appetite. If you need a gluten-free supplement, you will find it also in the BeFit range of products!

It is so easy to be healthy while enjoying something delicious, that you have no reason not to try BeFit. Just make your pick, try it for a few days and you will never stop again. For sure I never will! I wanna make it easy for you to try BeFit. Go 'like' BeFit on Facebook for a chance to win three nutritional products to use with the 30 day workout calendar and videos.
