OPINION: Trail mix changed my life
Before understanding the importance of nutrition and what it means to truly “fuel your body,” I not only had a terrible diet but poor eating habits. I’ve always been a consistent snacker but never put an emphasis on eating proper meals. I often ruined my appetite as a child and young adult due to my mediocre food and time management; for example, I would frequently eat a large bag of chips twenty minutes before my father prepared a meal for the table.
