6 healthy snacks to take to the beach

Although the heat hasn't quite felt as it should at this time of year, the truth is that it's midsummer, and we believe that the days spent on the beach are about to arrive!

Sometimes there is the difficulty of “what should we take to eat on the beach?”. Laziness in thinking and preparing the list of snacks gives rise to the consumption of inappropriate foods, such as French fries, cookies, that high-calorie sandwich we eat at the beach bar, and often, worse, we don't eat at all and when we have opportunity to eat, intake of high-calorie products is the easiest resource.

Focused on keeping you healthy and fit this summer, we've written this article with the best food suggestions you can take to the beach, while keeping that little body in good shape!

Check out the 6 suggestions we've chosen for you:

Fruit

Excellent option to maintain and replenish the hydration that we lose in the heat. Here, personal taste counts a lot. However, apples, pears, plums, watermelon or cantaloupe are excellent options.

Tip: cut the fruit into cubes and add small drops of lemon to help the fruit not oxidize.

Vegetables

Light and low in calories, everything we want and need. Options such as baby carrots, cucumber cut into thin strips and cherry tomatoes are a great choice!

Healthy Sandwiches

These are considered quite complete options (carbohydrates, vegetables, proteins and healthy fats) and can even replace a meal.

Our suggestions:

Tuna: Toasted whole-grain bread + Radish slices + Cucumber slices + Hard-boiled eggs slices + Tuna paté (1 can of tuna, ricotta cream, 1 tablespoon of parsley + ½ teaspoon of yellow mustard, Juice of 1 lemon, Salt to taste);
