I know that sometimes we forget our protein intake, its important we fuel our bodies with healthy foods! Remember we are what we eat and getting a good source of protein will cause us to have an energetic day. Sometimes some protein foods are not the best, but trust me I am all about my food, so I have compiled a list of snacks and protein filled drinks!

We all have a sweet tooth, right? It's just about how you indulge that craving. For me, it was always about the gummy snacks that came into their own and then came to dominate the nineties and the aughts. It's these two decades that the sticky, stretchy and colorful confectionary really came into its own, and became a household staple for millennials. Distribution played a major role in the gummy genres graduation from Robin to Nightwing, and it's ability to stand toe-to-toe with the Dark Knight (chocolate), but it's also the range that we see in the gummy sector that's made it a favorite. Whether you're into sour, sweet, shapes, colors, themes, gel-filled or stretchy, there's something for everyone out there. That's why I keep a trove next to my bed. What's your go-to?
