Some quality snacks can be of great help to keep fit, maintain high energy levels (which is perfect for us), and help us stay healthy. Most of these can easily be thrown into a cooler for a post-surf snack.
First of all, we must answer the following question:
What should we look for in a good snack?
- Quality Protein: High-quality proteins are those that contain the appropriate number of essential amino acids: Peanuts, shrimp, soy, milk, salmon, chicken or turkey breast, oatmeal. Among others.
Beef Jerky: Rich in Omega 3
Equine meat is one of the healthiest because it has omega 3 fats, healthy fats that are not common in other meats.
Vegetables and Avocado: Perfect Combination
Yogurt has a much higher amount of protein than milk. Your body uses protein to build: bones, muscles, cartilage, skin, hair and blood. Protein is also one of the three nutrients that provide energy. You can make a bowl with yogurt and add some fruits or cereal. Keep it in a cooler.
Homemade Protein Bars: Your own recipe
Another good idea is to make your own protein bars, there are many easy recipes on the internet, with organic products that is the most important. Another favorable point is that you will consume a product that is not processed and is free of treatments.
Cheese and fruit: Protein and Energy
Another easy bowl to do is the Cheese and fruit combo, chesse offers decent amount of protein and fruits offers energy and water. Use Parmesean or Cottage cheese, they are the most clean cheeses. This bowl combines good fats, proteins and carbohydrates.
