As families ease back into school routines, there’s still time to savor the final days of summer. I’m on CBS San Diego with fun and functional picks to make it easy to stay nourished, energized, and ready for the season ahead:
Superfood Support On-the-Go
When you’re juggling work, school drop-offs, and everything in between, nutrition can fall by the wayside—but it doesn’t have to. Juice Plus has transformed their best-selling capsules into a convenient Superfood Powder, delivering a curated, clinically researched blend of 30 fruits and vegetables. Just mix with water in a shake bottle or blend with a frother for a delicious boost of plant-based nutrition—any time of day.
Protein Bars That Taste Like Dessert
Busy days call for quick, satisfying, and nutritious snacks—and Linear Bars deliver. These decadent bars taste like candy, combining peanut butter, caramel, and dark chocolate, but they’re packed with purpose: 20g of protein, 12g of fiber, and 100% organic ingredients—nothing artificial. Find them at Erewhon, on Amazon, or at LinearBar.com.
Better-for-You Snacks for Kids
For little ones heading back to school, nutritious, parent- and kid-approved snacks are a must. Crispy Fruit by Crispy Green is made from 100% pure fruit with no added sugar or preservatives.
They’re mess-free, available in seven delicious flavors, and come in convenient grab-and-go 4-packs with a crunch kids love. Find them at Vons, Safeway, Gelson’s, Whole Foods Market, and CrispyGreen.com.
A Sweet Ending to Summer
Just because school is back in session doesn’t mean the summer fun has to end. July is National Ice Cream Month—and nothing says celebration like a Carvel Ice Cream Cake! From the folks at ILoveIceCreamCakes.com, these cakes come in a wide variety of flavors, including my favorite: Strawberry & Chocolate Crunchie. Use the Product Locator on their site to find one near you in most major grocery store freezer cases.
