Eating healthy this summer with The Dischinger Team

This summer, as you and the family head to out to the ball game—whether it’s at a Major League park or the local tee ball game, The Dischinger Team wants to remind you to stay healthy. It is important it is to make smart, healthy choices when it comes to snacks and drinks. Here are some tips you can use to avoid greasy, ballpark foods:

1. Eat before you go!

2. What are you drinking? Water is always a cheap, refreshing option. Gatorade, Powerade and VitaminWater work as well, though keep in mind their sugar levels. Remember to stay hydrated in the hot weather!

3. Bring your own snacks. Remember that these must be in unopened packages when you enter the gates.

4. Before the game, get some exercise. You’ll be sitting for two- to three hours at the game, so be sure to take a walk or a light run before you head out.

5. Calories, calories, calories. From hot dogs to fries to pizza, the ballpark stands typically sell high-caloric foods. But most venues will also offer healthier options, such as crab cakes, chicken sandwiches, turkey wraps or soups and salads.

Enjoy the game! We look forward to seeing everyone at our BBQ this week!
