5 Healthy Eating Tips When Traveling

Maintaining healthy eating habits while traveling isn’t easy; whether traveling for business or pleasure, staying in hotels or an RV, eating healthy while you are out and about requires some planning. While you don’t have to go on a super health craze, you may be someone who prefers having healthier options, and if so, you’ll want to be prepared for that when traveling. There are many ways to stay on the healthy eating train while traveling, and today, I am sharing some easy-to-follow tips.

1. Pack Snacks To Eat Healthy When Traveling

Preparing full meals to bring with you during travels may be unreasonable; however, you can eat healthy while packing some fruits, nuts, and other snack items. Most transportation allows travelers to have meals, but to be safe, call ahead to ensure they enable snacks on the plane or public transit you will be using. Stay clear of those so-called power and energy bars full of added sugars to make them taste good. Your best bet is to make your own. Also, if you have no choice but to grab something in a hurry, try reading the ingredients and choose the best one.

2. Find Restaurants A Head Of Time

Make a note of all healthy eating restaurants that will be located near your traveling destination. This lets you know the best food options for meals during travel time. In addition to restaurants, try to locate stores that sell healthy food options so that you can prepare healthy snacks in your hotel room or your RV Rental.

3. Keep Water Handy While Traveling

Staying hydrated will ensure that you do not get a case of munchies. If our stomach feels empty, we may likely opt to pick up an unhealthy vendor machine snack when traveling. Always have a water bottle to keep your body hydrated and avoid false hunger triggers.

4. Download Apps Before You Go

Before heading out to travel, download apps that will help you find healthy food options and save you money simultaneously, such as Yelp, Foodspotting, Healthyout, and Localeats, to name a few. There are many apps on the market that price compares when traveling and discounts on local restaurants in the areas where you are staying. Use apps to your full advantage to eat healthy without going broke.

5. Fill Up On Protein

Just like staying hydrated, you will want to keep your belly feeling full of healthy options to avoid the urge of unhealthy snacking. Be sure to eat more protein than usual to have energy and feel full longer. Many food options pack a punch of protein in small packages for take-a-longs.

Excellent Protein Choices:

  • almonds
  • chicken
  • tuna
  • Greek yogurt
  • avocado
  • pistachios
  • cheese sticks (stay away from yellow cheese)
  • trail mix
  • peanut butter
  • boiled eggs

These are a few easy-to-follow tips on eating healthy when traveling. Be sure to stick with your healthy eating habits when traveling to maintain a full-feeling belly. You can do it!
