Barbara's Bakery: Healthy Lifestyle Tips
At Barbara's, our quest for a healthy lifestyle starts with a healthy breakfast. A morning peek into our cozy test kitchen reveals a fabulous assortment of breakfast combinations using Barbara's cereals and bars.
Study after study indicates that body, mind and spirit benefit from a nourishing breakfast, so suit up and show up with Barbara''s great-tasting breakfast fare.
A delicious, healthy Barbara's breakfast is just the beginning. Here are some simple healthy lifestyle tips we like:
- Wear a pedometer and aim for 10,000 steps a day (five miles), A major study found that walkers who hit 10,000 steps improved their fitness level, blood pressure, and body fat as much as a group that followed a traditional aerobic program at a gym. If you simply add 2,000 steps to your current level, you'll be able to maintain your current weight.
- Eliminate trans fat. It is a proven contributor to heart disease. Become a label-reader and, of course, buy Barbara's! We've never used hydrogenated oil in 36 years.
- Create regular, balanced meals where you sit down and enjoy.
- Take the stairs! Make it a self-challenge to take the stairs when faced with an elevator.
- Reduce screen time with TV, computers, and video time, and increase active time.
- Go appreciate nature. At our California headquaters, we are blessed by an abundance of walking trails and proximity to a nature preserve, Shollenberger Park, on the Petaluma River. A nature break is a great way to get rejuvenated.
- Cultivate a positive attitude and gratitude. Look for the good in every situation and say thanks for the good
