6 Healthy Choices to Feel Your Best

I have been compensated by  Sundown Naturals ® and  Pollinate Media Group  for this post as part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group® and Sundown Naturals® but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #GoodnessGiveaway #sharethegoodness  http://my-disclosur.es/OBstV As I have been working the nutrition field for over 6 years, my thoughts on nutrition have changed. No longer do I believe in artificial sweeteners (for the most part) or fat-free cheese- yuck! Instead, I focus on eating real food that is full of nutrients. I do not diet, ever. I choose to eat healthy most of the time to feel my best because feeling good is number one to me.

Almond Cashew Butter Banana Bread

This Almond Cashew Butter Banana Bread is easy to make and is full of nutty and rich flavor. It is  made with whole-wheat flour and is moist and delicious! Banana bread is a classic dish that seems to disappear almost immediately every time that it is made. Everyone loves it from grandmas to moms and dads and even young children. There is something about a piece of fresh baked banana bread that is so delicious, it is hard to just have one piece. This banana bread is made healthier with whole-wheat flour and uses less sugar that many traditional recipes. It uses olive oil instead of butter for a healthier fat option.

Fueling for After-School Sports and Play

As a dietitian, I get a lot of questions about what to eat. I could totally skip the questions about "how do I lose X pounds in about 5 minutes" but I love the questions where people are truly looking for sound nutrition advice. This summer, my husband's cousin was asking me about what to eat before her swim meets. She said that if she eats too much, she doesn't feel well when she races. If she eats too little, she doesn't have enough energy to feel strong while competing.
