We hope you\u2019re still crushing your wellness-related New Year\u2019s resolutions in 2024! March is National Nutrition month and it gives us an opportunity to reflect inward and make tangible changes to our diets or workout regimens. It could be as simple as adding another veggie or fruit to every meal. Here are five realistic ways to eat healthier this month:<\/strong><\/p>\n Though there are some who sincerely lack certain vitamins and minerals that can\u2019t be achieved through diet alone, most of the good things our bodies need come from food \u2014 not store-bought supplements. Research shows that certain supplements haven\u2019t been tested to meet many purity and safety standards, making them unreliable sources of nutrition.<\/li>\n When in doubt, throw some color on your plate \u2014 natural color, that is. Bright greens from crunchy vegetables or vibrant reds from tangy fruit will not only make your meal Instagram-worthy, they\u2019ll give you a healthy boost.<\/li>\n Avoiding typical restaurant or fast-food grease may seem obvious, but what is even more important than that is the ability to control portion sizes when you pack your own lunch. Try something fun like a DIY Bento box!<\/li>\n Shopping a supermarket’s outside aisles ensures that you\u2019re getting healthy alternatives to processed foods like produce, meat, and dairy. When you move inward, most, if not all, of the products contain unnecessary additives and sugar.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n
\n<\/strong>We all know drinking water helps in nearly every aspect of wellness, but drinking the recommended amount of water per day can be tough. Electrolyte additives offer the same, if not better benefits that drinking six or more glasses of water a day would.<\/li>\nChoose food over supplements<\/strong><\/h5>\n
Opt for color<\/strong><\/h5>\n
