E4 - Meal deals with The Lunchbox Doctor

E4 - Meal deals with The Lunchbox Doctor

Author: The Natural Alternative Health & Wellbeing Ltd August 27, 2020 Duration: 19:39

We've all been there - short on time and need to buy food on the go. Meal deals can be attractive as they're often more competitively priced than individual healthier options. 

We catch up with Jenny to ask her if some meal deals better than others, and how can we find healthier meal deals?

Jenny also speaks about a quick guide to reading food labels to help personalize food for our individual health, and we also go into more depth in this in our Understanding food labels webinar.

We also discuss our nutrition top suggestions for homemade "lunch on the road" food, including lunchbox bingo to make sure there's nutritional balance.
