Hi,

I often do classes late in the evening and get home at around 10PM. At that point, one of the last things I want to do is prepare myself something to eat.

What do you recommend? Do I need to eat a whole meal? Can I have a few snacks on the way home from my practise and that will suffice?

Thanks for your input!

I cant speak for your body but for mine a good healthy snack or smoothy would be great. A nice real probiotic yogurt with a banana or maybe some cottage cheese and dates. Whatever floats your boat!!!

Hi Jeffrey

I am not so sure. That product seems to be VERY highly processed and has lots of chemicals in it. The maltodextrin itself is a creation of much chemical intervention. That products also uses processed sugar and artificial flavors. I don’t recognize anything on the list of ingredients that I would consider a whole food.

What about some simple fruit, nuts, vegies? No need to prepare a meal if it’s late at night. Mitzi, I am sure that snacks on the way home (healthy ones) will do!

Namaste
Gabrielle 🙂

Thanks Gabrielle. I thought I would ask because I always have a few pack of these in my trunk just in case I feel hungry on the road. Also I tend not to consume anything in the morning and then go to yoga in the afternoon. I feel tired and hungry after yoga.
