Yo!Naturals: Healthy Vending Machines
Wouldn't it be great if you could get your favorite health food from a vending machine? Well, my buddy YumSugar just told me about the San Diego based company YoNaturals, and they are bringing health food to the ultimate icon of snacking convenience - the vending machine.
YoNaturals is on the front line in the battle against junk food vending machine, and I wholeheartedly applaud their efforts.
LARABAR: Cashew Cookie
At my yoga studio yesterday, they were giving away free samples of LARABARs. Of course I had to try them and report back to my fellow health nuts.
I've told you about them before, but I thought you might like a little bit more info considering there are so many energy and granola bars out there - it's hard to keep them straight and know which ones are good.

New Tastes Coming in Energy Bars: Luna and Lara
Both my favorite brands of energy bars are coming out with new tastes this Spring. Luna Bar has updated its recipe, and Larabar will be debuting three new flavors soon. For me, and the stash of energy bars I keep in my purse and gym bag, this is exciting news.
Lara Bars
When you are on the run and want to make sure you have enough energy for your run, reach for a Lara Bar.

When it comes to pre-workout snacking, energy bars are up there on my list of favorite quick fixes that get me through my workout. After hearing that some bars have been recalled because they could be tainted with salmonella, I was paranoid to touch any of the bars I had previously purchased.

Give Your Host a Healthy, Homemade Gift Basket
Hostess gifts are often an afterthought when preparing for a stay away from home, so why not do things differently this holiday season? Give a thank-you gift that will be appreciated and remembered by creating a healthy gift basket for your host. The fact that you did it yourself, rather than purchasing a prepared fruit basket, will stand out as an extra-thoughtful gesture.

A while back I told you all about the Lara Bars - energy bars made from wholesome and simple ingredients. I know there are so many energy bar, protein bars and (oh I do hate this name) meal replacement bars out there - so let's go Fit Finding for some more. I like to have choices, don't you?
