Nutrition Blog - Steve Labecki

With so many different topics within the field of nutrition to focus on and learn about it can be overwhelming to try to take it all in at once. Instead of drowning Steve with information and guidelines we have decided to set small goals in order to make sustainable changes over time. The first of which is increasing his daily intake of water. While drinking more water may sound simple enough, it is much easier said than done. Some simple ways to help increase your water intake are, keeping track of how often you are actually drinking water. With a busy schedule and life to get in the way it is hard to remember exactly how much water you are consuming in a day. Another way to accomplish this is to bring your own reusable water bottle; that way you know not only how often you are drinking water but exactly how much (not to mention saving the landfills from yet another disposable plastic water bottle.) One of the best ways to “trick” yourself into drinking more water is drinking flavored water. Many companies now offer flavor packets you can add to your water, just make sure the one you choose is both sugar and calorie free.
