Herbalife Nutrition: Plan Your Meals Ahead for Better Nutrition
Herbalife Nutrition Advisory Board (NAB) Chairman Dr. Kent Bradley advises that one needs to plan ahead when it comes to getting the right nutrition for optimum health.
“It’s called Implementation Intention. For example, when you know that you will come home with no time to prepare a meal, you better have a plan ahead of time because you know it’s going to happen,” he said.
He added there are many practical and healthy ways to incorporate on your daily meal plan. “From a nutritional perspective, convenience is really important. If you’re busy, then you need to have very convenient and healthy options. The barrier isn’t that we’re busy, it’s that we forget to be active,” he said.
He advised that we should have reminders or cues so that we don’t forget.
“Pair the things that are happening in your life with the things that you need to do. There are things that we can substitute that are healthier for us,” he said.
He cited as an example the products that Herbalife Nutrition offers.
“We have created a highly dense nutrient-based meal without the high calories. A Frappuccino and a croissant, which are what some people will have for breakfast, have thousands of calories. Our shake, even if you add a banana to it, will get you only about 240 calories. It’s a significant reduction in calories while also giving you the micronutrients, vitamins, and minerals that you hope to have in a typical meal,” he said.
