Many people take a lunchbox to work. And they give it to their children for school. It's good, of course, but there are some nuances.
Firstly, regular consumption of sandwiches alone becomes boring.
Secondly, these same sandwiches can have a negative impact on your health if you eat only them.
How to pack a healthy lunch? Tasty and filling? Nutritionists have given recommendations on this matter.
In particular, it is recommended to take at least one of the following products:
- sandwiches;
- tortilla;
- potato salad;
- rice;
-crackers;
- breadsticks;
- couscous.
Each of the named products, experts say, provides energy to the body, including the brain.
In addition, such food contains a lot of fiber, vitamin B and other useful substances.
As for fruits and vegetables, you need to take at least one fruit and vegetable with you.
These gifts of nature are rich in vitamins, minerals, fiber and antioxidants.
Among dairy products, nutritionists advise paying attention to yoghurts, cheeses, milk, and milk rice porridge.
There is a very convincing argument in favor of this category of products: they contain considerable amounts of calcium, iodine, vitamins A and B, and protein.
You can also “decorate” your takeaway with meat, fish, legumes and some other products.
In particular, you can take with you chicken, pork, veal, lamb, fish, beans, etc.
These foods are rich in proteins, zinc and iron.
