Christmas Holiday Party BuffetBy Cliff Smith

This is not about throwing a healthy holiday party, but it is about surviving holiday parties and pot lucks with your own personal health intact.

Never Go To a Holiday Party Hungry

If you’re famished when you first arrive, you’re going to reach for every tempting morsel that passes in front of you, and then some.  The best defense is a good offense by having a healthy snack before you leave the house.  There’s nothing better than NuPlus to curb cravings, satisfy the body and help keep you from reaching for every treat.  A quick NuPlus sets you up to make healthier choices, naturally, without feeling like you’re missing out on holiday fun.

NuPlus

Pack a Healthy Snack in Your Pocket

SunbarsThis is really important for people who are trying to avoid sugary treats.  Instead of salivating over a piece of pie or cookies, pack a Sunbar in your pocket.  These little bars pack a powerfully nutritious punch to knock out sugar cravings, and the chocolate ones are like little rice-crispy brownies.  Sunbars calm hunger pains, quickly, anytime, anywhere, and are much easier to digest than other bars.  If you’re concerned about eating one too many pieces of pie, then having a Sunbar handy can keep you from making that mistake.

It’s Great to Hydrate

Fortune Delight

Drinking enough healthy fluids is important, especially before, during, and after indulging in cocktails, eggnog, or salty snacks.  Fortune Delight mixes easily with water and helps balance electrolytes, like potassium and sodium levels.  It also is known for helping the body to process and eliminate fats and bad cholesterol.

Enjoy variety and moderation while savoring the flavors of the holidays without betting your health on a pot luck.
