Being at home more than usual isn’t easy. Do you find yourself mindlessly snacking because you are bored or stressed? Do you feel like you could use more energy throughout the day? Did you know your food choices can impact your mood AND your immune system?
There are a lot of things we have no control over as we continue to face new challenges everyday, but we can be proactive about fuelling our bodies with foods that support ongoing mental resilience and healthy immunity!
