Functional Medicine Corner
Last week we discussed how we can provide more nutrient density into our breakfast each morning. This week, let’s focus on how to ensure we are fueling optimally around noon to provide us sustained energy through the second half of the school or work day.
- Maximize sources of protein
- Ensuring adequate protein portions at lunchtime will help to provide sustained energy that lasts to the end of the school day and beyond.
- This can be in the form of a deli meat sandwich, but hard-boiled eggs, nuts, hummus, or left-over roast from the night before are also great options!
- Provide variety and color
- Lunches can become very quickly boring after a couple of weeks of the same foods.
- Working on including different colors in fruits and vegetables with yogurt dips or nut butters can provide some interest, as well as increased nutrient density.
- Even consider themes such as Mexican or Mediterranean to jazz lunchtime up a bit!
- Add creativity with things like yogurt, salad or protein bowls
- Send separate ingredients in small wraps or bento boxes, as well as some type of container to mix them all. Then ingredients remain fresh until they are mixed together before eating.
Below are some ideas to help get your creative juices flowing! Enjoy creating!
