My 3 Travel Nutrition Essentials
Travel comes with the territory in my line of work, and honestly, I love it. It's not the flights or the hotel stays that get me excited—it's the vibrant tapestry of people I meet, the genuine connections I forge, and the spark of inspiration that seems to strike in the most unexpected places. With the amount of time I spend journeying from place to place, I've developed a bit of an obsession with maintaining my health and ensuring I'm always on top of my game.
So, here are a few things I don’t travel without…
1. Athletic Greens
Nutrition options can be (who are we kidding, usually are) limited on the road. Most every day I start out with AG1 – the travel packs – to make sure I’ve covered my nutritional bases. I like the scientific approach, the comprehensive nutrients and it tastes good as well.
2. LMNT
I started a new practice that whenever I get off an airplane I drink at least one entire bottle of water and I can’t believe the difference it makes. I feel better, sleep better, recover better – all the things have validated how important hydration is.
And LMNT’s electrolytes help even more. Instead of some sugar-packed drink, I add a packet of LMNT to the water to make sure I’m healthy, hydrated and ready to take any stage.
Lately, I’ve been partial to the watermelon flavor…
3. Raw Nutrition
When I don’t have any options to sit down and eat a meal, I go protein shake.
Don’t get me wrong, I prefer a real meal hands down.
But the fast food that’s sometimes the only thing available doesn’t count as a real meal to me. It’s a Raw Nutrition protein shake that fills the gap. I always go chocolate but there are a bunch of flavors to choose from.
What are some of the supplements and nutritional aids that you travel with? I’m always looking out for new things to try. I’ve tried a lot of different things traveling but these have become my staple items. Why? Because they just work and I feel better.
If you try any of what I’ve recommended here – let me know how you like them. See you at the airport!
