Warmer weather often brings more movement—more walks, more workouts, more time spent outside. But if you’re not fuelling your body right, you might feel sluggish instead of strong.
Here’s how to make your food work for you this spring:
1. Fresh = Best
Take advantage of seasonal produce:
🍓 Strawberries, spinach, and herbs
🥦 Cruciferous veggies like broccoli and cabbage
🥔 Local root veggies still in season
Eat the rainbow to boost nutrients and support recovery.
2. Hydration is Key
Even when it’s not hot-hot, spring sun and increased activity mean you need more water. Add a pinch of sea salt and a squeeze of lemon for natural electrolytes.
3. Protein Power
Support those hard-working muscles with protein at every meal. Think eggs, Greek yogurt, chicken, beans, or protein smoothies post-workout.
4. Snack Smart
Swap ultra-processed snacks for whole food options:
- Apple + peanut butter
- Hard-boiled eggs + veggies
- Trail mix with seeds and dried fruit
