This morning I rolled out of bed and dragged myself out on a run. After the initial drudgery of wishing I was still in bed, I started to warm up, both physically and mentally. I was feeling pretty good on the run because I’d had a protein packed dinner the night before. I wasn’t running on empty, as they say.
Somedays, though, that donut or pizza or third scoop of ice cream is really making me hate life while I exercise.
After a good long run, I need food. Fast. I grab whatever is fast, but I can’t just grab a bag of chips. I have to have something with some protein, energy, and most of all, flavor!
Now, don’t be thinking that I only snack before or after exercising. I snack during a movie or at the park with the kids, on road trips or while I’m scrolling through Facebook.
Why, even just the other day we took the kids on a bike ride to go fishing. And, of course, it wasn’t long until they asked, “Mom, did you bring any food?” You bet I did. I packed some granola bars and water bottles…but that’s what we always give them. Sometimes it’s nice to have a bit of variety.
A lot of those kid snacks (and adult snacks!) are sugar packed and artificially dyed. I can’t stand that! Why do I need to pump my kids full of sugar and dye? Can’t we just find a snack that’s good for us and doesn’t taste like cardboard? Thanks.
Wish granted!
Natierra Chia Crunch snacks are Superfoods with Soul. Using a unique freeze-drying method, Natierra Crunch combines nutrient-dense chia seeds with fruits and vegetables that are packed with vitamins.

They’re mess free – which is a MUST for kids! And with sweet flavors like mixed berry, blueberry, mango and strawberry, and savory flavors like kale + spinach and beet, you know there’s something for everyone.
Personally, I can’t wait to try the mango and the coconut!
