Quaker believes that making the right healthy lifestyle choices, including eating smart, can help give you the good energy you want to make the most of the moments that matter. From a warm, hearty breakfast to a quick, grab and go snack, keeping energy levels in check is important.
As part of the launch of the Quaker Good Energy Lodge, Brook Burke Charvet hosted a Google Hangout for select media participants. During the chat, she offered some of her person tips and ideas for maintaining her energy as a busy mom.
Brooke Burke Charvet offered these suggestions for being an energized mom.
- Start your day with a good food choices, which provide good fuel.
- Try five small meals throughout the day to maintain energy levels
- Keep a snack chest in your car. Any busy mom knows how many hours are spent carpooling. The snack chest can be a quick, easy source for good food choices on the go.
- Even on busy days, try to exercise. The activity can make you feel better.
