For some, the stupid season has only just ended. Many Aussies take the opportunity from Christmas through New Years until now to indulge a little more.
Quest Nutrition officially marks the end of the festivities this time around and encourages Aussies to prioritize their health and nutrition for 2021.
Quest focuses on making snacks that are filled with protein, low in sugar and carbohydrates, without compromising on taste or nutrition.
Below are Quest's top tips to help meet this year's health and wellness goals:
Start with protein
According to Quest, including protein in every meal means you're less likely to indulge excessively. Protein helps you feel full and satisfied.
Satisfy the sweet tooth
Do not ignore the cravings or give up the health goals either! According to Quests, peanut butter cups are a great solution to food cravings.
Quest Peanut Butter Cups will be launched in February and are available at select retailers for $ 5 for a two-pack.
Plan ahead
Planning ahead ensures there is less chance of stopping in stores to buy something sweet.
Quest offers a range of protein bars in 15 flavors including Birthday Cake, Blueberry Muffin, Rocky Road, and S & # 39; mores. All Quest protein bars contain 20 to 21 g of high-quality protein, are high in fiber, but low in carbohydrates, free from soy and gluten, with no added sugar.
Mindful eating
Quest suggests taking off the electronics and putting the utensils down in between bites to practice mindful eating.
The benefits of mindful eating include preventing weight gain and overeating.
Bake with protein powder
A lesser-known use for protein powder is that it can be used to make baked goods like cookies, brownies, banana bread, and muffins. Using protein powder in baking lowers carbohydrate counts, says the Quest team.
