HEALTHY LIVING WITH JANICE - TIP OF THE DAY


I read an article recently that said guzzling coffee without food to keep you going during the day is like revving the engine of your car with no gas in the tank. Why? Because although it gives you a quick energy boost, it doesn’t provide you with any nutrients. Therefore, you may wind up crashing and burning.

The article recommended that you snack on a handful of nuts (almonds are great!) or try some veggie sticks dipped in hummus along with your java.

I've found a small handful of almonds around 4pm usually tides me over until dinner, Babs. No way could I ever give up the coffee, though!
