We all know that going on a vacation after a long year, is an absolute must. It may not be easy to maintain your diet of choice on a trip, but since you’re on vacation it’s still important to be able to enjoy yourself. So here are some tips on common food mistakes to avoid while traveling.
Mindless Snacking
While on the road, it is easy to start snacking mindlessly. But you should avoid random snacking. Do this by choosing a consistent meal schedule. Eating meals on a routine can help promote digestion. This means that you’ll have a more comfortable and enjoyable trip.
Overcaffeinating
Sipping a small quantity of coffee may seem harmless, but it elevates epinephrine and cortisol, stress hormones, which let’s face it the last thing we want to fell when on vacation. Opt for healthy drinks such as green tea without caffeine or water.
Overindulging Every Day
Most times, resorts and cruise ships offer deals that can include endless buffets or room service. This can lead to overindulgence. If possible, cook your own food. That way you can control what you eat and when you eat it.
Not Drinking Enough Water
Staying hydrated is essential during a trip. The human body contains a large percentage of water. Staying in long flights can be demanding on the body, and this can lead to dehydration. To prevent this from happening, sip water often.
