Just because babies are small does not mean they require fewer nutrients. In fact, they need a variety of vitamins and minerals to support the development of their body and brains.

Food to Pick You Up

August 15, 2011 By Charlie

The start of a new work week is here again, and I am pretty sure that many of you – if not most – are looking for a pick me upper. After all, the weekend is ALWAYS too short! If you want to try, take a look at these different kinds of food that may just help give you a boost.

Oatmeal. Tomorrow morning, load up on some oatmeal. If you do not normally eat breakfast, then it’s about time that you did. Your grandmother told you so. Your mom told you so. And now we’re telling you the same thing. Breakfast can give you a jumpstart and keep you going all day! By the way, stick with plain old oatmeal. Forget the instant or flavored ones for maximum benefit.

Bananas. Oatmeal and fruit, why not? I suggest getting a couple of bananas to last you through Monday as well. If you feel the munchies coming on, just grab one of the bananas and munch away. Not only will you be eating healthy, you will also be packing on some energy boosters.

Dark chocolate. Now you’ve been looking out for this on my list, haven’t you? Who doesn’t like a bit of chocolate every now and then? Just make sure it’s dark chocolate so you won’t be eating all those extra calories. Dark chocolate has been known to lift your mood and give you a burst of energy as well. You can’t really beat that combination, can you?

Here’s to a good week for all of us!
