Bougie in a Backpack

Ep. 95: Navigating Nutrition on the Go with Tess (@glowithtess)


Listen Later

Today we are chatting with Tess Cheng (@glowithtess) who will be speaking in our October summit about maintaining health while traveling. Tess is a nutritionist who shares valuable tips on preparation, nutrition, and hydration, and shares the importance of research and planning ahead. She discusses travel essentials, including snacks, water filters, and the significance of requesting low-sodium meals on flights. She also covers overcoming challenges faced by travelers, such as language barriers and limited food options, and highlights useful apps and resources for healthy travel. In this episode, you will learn:

  • Research local gyms and food regulations before traveling.
  • Pack healthy snacks like almond butter and canned food.
  • Stay hydrated with a water filter bottle.
  • Request low sodium meals on flights to avoid excess salt.
  • Avoid heavy meals before flights for better sleep.
  • Consider staying in Airbnbs for kitchen access.
  • Use Google Translate for language barriers while traveling.
  • Bring supplements and medications to avoid shortages.
  • Plan meals ahead to avoid unhealthy options.
  • Stay consistent with sleep routines before traveling.
  • ...and more!
