Healthy choices at work

Who knew eating smarter at work could be so easy?

Making healthy food choices can boost your energy, lift your mood, control your weight, and even strengthen your immune system. That’s why we’ve teamed up with Kaiser Permanente to help make the healthy choice your easy choice, even at work.

Small healthy changes, big healthy benefits

How you eat is up to you, but these tips make healthy choices simple.

• Portion properly. Recommended serving sizes are often smaller than you think. Be sure to check labels so you know just how many calories you’re getting from just how much food.

• Opt for H2O. Swapping a soda for a glass of water every day can save you 62,500 calories per year.

• Pack “light.” Bring your favorite healthy snacks from home so you always have a smart option at work.

• Eat less sugar. Make fruit your go-to sweet treat to reduce your risk of diabetes or obesity.

• Focus on the fun stuff. Plan work events that celebrate teamwork, not ones that center around food.

Treat yourself to good health at work

Put the focus on fun, not food. Karaoke, anyone?

Serve fresh fruits and veggies for a crunchy, colorful treat.

Have a smoothie party. Blend low-fat yogurt with fresh or frozen fruit. Don’t forget the straws!

Create a spa water bar with add-ins like citrus, fresh mint, and strawberries.

Try to keep desserts under 175 calories per serving.

Make a watermelon birthday cake. Just cut out a cake shape and add candles. Voila!

Throw a B.Y.O.S. salad party where everyone brings one ingredient to add to the salad bar.

Go for whole-grain pretzels or air-popped popcorn to serve a smarter snack.

Here’s to your health!

Healthy celebration ideasWe’ve got a lot to celebrate, and that’s a wonderful thing! Next time you’re planning a work party, why not think beyond ice cream and cake?
