Eating healthy foods is important because it provides your body with the nutrition it needs to be full of energy, vitality, and focus. Many people want to be healthy, but not everyone knows how to do it. Here are 5 healthy eating tips you can use right away to start living a healthier life, even on the road!

1. Eat lots of fruit. It is quite difficult to get fat eating fruit, so if you are very hungry, eat a lot of fruit. It digests faster than heavy foods like meat and nuts and provides your body with a natural energy boost. Bananas are an easy fruit to store in the truck. They don’t need to be refrigerated and can last a few days or up to a week without spoiling.
2. Use a 12v fridge to keep perishable foods fresh. Fill your refrigerator with fruits, vegetables, and water. If you prewash all of your fruits and vegetables, when you’re hungry, all you have to do is grab something from the refrigerator and eat it. For a healthy and tasty meal, chop up a bunch of fruits and maybe a veggie or two and mix it all together in a blender for a delicious and healthy smoothie.
3. Eat superfoods. A superfood is a food that has a higher nutritional value than usual. Some of these foods include blueberries, bee pollen, honey, raw eggs, cod liver oil, and much more. Try a couple of those and find out what you like to eat the most. Then eat that food regularly to give your body a nutritional boost.
4. Choose healthy snacks. Nuts are some of the healthiest snacks available. It is best to eat nuts raw, but sometimes the only nuts available are roasted and salted. Nuts are a heavy food and take longer to digest than fruits, so try to eat small amounts every now and then. Another healthy snack is nuts.
5. Choose a healthy restaurant. When you have no choice but to go out to eat at a restaurant, choose the healthiest options possible. Subway is my favorite, because the food is fresh and I can include some vegetables in my meal. At other restaurants, order a fruit smoothie instead of a soda as a drink. Or just drink some water.

As you start to apply these tips, I’m sure you will find that eating healthy foods is more fun and easier than you bargained for. The more you try to eat healthy, the easier it will become. Very soon you will find yourself craving fruits and vegetables instead of junk food. That’s when you know that your life (and your health) is improving. Happy food and safe travel!
