Eating better can help you get better sleep, improve your energy levels and just make you an overall happier person. Sticking to your health goals can be difficult, but with a few simple upgrades, you can start to improve your nutrition in no time.
Nutrition products like protein powders and electrolyte water additives can be added to your daily diet, helping you stay full and hydrated. Juicers and smoothie makers can transform your breakfast and snacks into a healthy meal, while healthy meal cookbooks and meal kits can make cooking healthier a breeze.
When you're trying to eat healthier and live a more active lifestyle, protein powder can help you stay full and give your body the nutrients it needs. There are all kinds of different protein powders, it's just about finding the one that works best for you.
Orgain organic protein powder is a popular choice, largely because it's made entirely from plant-based ingredients. It's low in sugar and can be added to smoothies, oatmeal and even ice cream shakes. If you want a tastier protein powder, Premier Protein has a chocolate protein powder that has 30 grams of protein per serving. Quest Nutrition has a naturally flavored peanut butter protein powder for any peanut butter lovers out there.
If you're an Amazon Prime member, you can get many of these items to your door ASAP. You can join or start a 30-day free trial to start your shopping today.
Original price: $70
Smoothies are packed with fruits, vegetables and other ingredients that keep you healthy, and the easiest way to make a smoothie is with a Nutribullet. These small, powerful blenders make single or double-serve smoothies in minutes.
You can find Nutribullets on sale right now at Walmart, or get the more advanced Nutribullet Pro from the Nutribullet site.
Instead of buying highly processed juice packed with added sugar, a juicer can help you make fresh juice at home with your favorite fruits. A Hamilton Beach juicer is an affordable option that lets you put whole fruit through the machine, creating over half a gallon of juice you can store in the fridge for later.
Planning to juice every day? A Nutribullet juicer is the perfect machine. It's a powerful 800-watt juicer that features two different speeds for different sizes of fruit. All the parts are machine-washable, so you can easily clean them.
Staying hydrated is a huge part of staying healthy. Liquid I.V.s are water additives that are packed with electrolytes and nutrients. Plus, they come in a variety of delicious flavors. Amazon has a multi-pack of different Liquid I.V. flavors, including strawberry, lemon lime, passion fruit and tropical punch.
The flavors don't stop there, though. You can build your own bundle on the Liquid I.V. site. Choose from dozens of flavors and get sugar-free options if you prefer.
Cooking healthy every night can be exhausting, especially if you're constantly looking up new recipes. Meal kits make cooking healthy food more realistic. You can choose from 20- or 30-minute meals, filled with healthy ingredients.
Sunbasket is a healthy meal delivery service that includes options for a wide range of diets, including paleo, vegetarian, gluten-free and diabetes-friendly. HelloFresh is another popular option for health-conscious eaters. You'll get healthy, ready-made meals that you just pop in the microwave or oven.
Switching to healthier meal options can be difficult if you don't know where to start. Luckily, there are hundreds of cookbooks that can walk you step-by-step through delicious recipes. "The Wicked Healthy Cookbook" is a vegetarian cookbook packed with all your favorite recipes, just in a healthier form. You can make tacos, pizza, dips and more from plant-based ingredients.
"Gordon Ramsay's Healthy, Lean & Fit: Mouthwatering Recipes to Fuel You for Life" is another great healthy cookbook option. It has breakfast, lunches and dinners that are healthy but still delicious. "Super Gut" is a book all about keeping your gut healthy so you can lose weight. It's a four-week plan designed by a doctor to reset your gut's health.

Keeping yourself well hydrated doesn't have to be boring. You can add whatever flavors you'd like to your water when you use an infuser water bottle. Infusing your water can help you actually drink it each day.
An Infusion Pro is a well-designed water bottle with an infuser built in that you can fill with berries and other fruit to get nutrients and make your water taste better. The modern design fits in with the most stylish water bottles.
The aquaFrut water bottle is a simple clear bottle with an infuser built in. It also has a hand grip to make the bottle more comfortable to hold, and each bottle comes with a cleaning brush, so you can easily clean your water bottle daily.
Original price: $23.99
When tracking your weight-loss journey, a smart scale can help you understand your weight and health better. A basic Smart scale from Amazon connects to an app, offering a customized diet and exercise plan based on the results on the scale.
The Withings Body Smart scale is more high-tech. It also comes with an app that measures your health metrics, but the Body Smart scale looks at more than just your weight. It tracks fat and muscle percentages, your heart rate and offers metabolic monitoring.

5 victims in Traverse City Walmart stabbing attack released from hospital

Five of the 11 people injured in a stabbing attack at a Traverse City, Michigan, Walmart on July 26 have been treated and released from the hospital, health system officials said Friday. In addition to the five released, four patients are in good condition, and two others have been treated and transferred, according to Munson Medical Center in Traverse City, which has been providing medical care. The victims range in age from 29 to 84 years old. "We continue to extend our heartfelt appreciation to the incredible physicians, nurses, surgeons, clinical professionals, and support staff across Munson Healthcare. Their unwavering commitment to care and recovery during this difficult time reflects the strength of our healthcare community," the hospital system said in a statement Friday. "Our thoughts are with all those affected and their loved ones. We stand beside them and remain focused on supporting the health and well-being of everyone in our region." Bradford James Gille, 42, of Afton, Michigan, is accused of using a folding knife with a 3.5-inch blade to attack five men and six women, including one store employee, during the late afternoon hours of July 26. Gille is charged with terrorism and 11 counts of assault with intent to murder. He was arraigned on July 28 in the 86th District Court and pleaded not guilty. Gille has a history of mental illness and a criminal record that includes assault and malicious destruction of property, according to Grand Traverse County Prosecutor Noelle Moeggenberg. Authorities are still working to determine a motive behind the attack. The store, where the attack occurred in northwest Michigan, reopened Wednesday morning.

Forget Price Comparisons, Walmart Drops Fitbit Charge 6 With Premium Membership to All-Time Low

It may have gotten a little lost under the avalanche of smartwatch health trackers, but the Fitbit was first, and it's still very much here and very much an excellent fitness wearable. The latest iteration of this lightweight exercise and sleep tracker, the Fitbit Charge 6, is the best one yet, and now it's bundled with six free months of Fitbit Premium membership for just $111 at Walmart. The Fitbit may look very as it has for several years, and it has the same lightweight almost-forget-it's-there comfort, but the Fitbit Charge 6 has advanced features that would seem completely alien to the early Fitbits (remember the clip-on model with no screen?) and a price tag that will make all of those high-end fitness smartwatches blush. It's still compatible with both Apple (iOS 15 or higher) and Android (OS 9.0 or higher) devices, which just adds to its universal appeal. See at Walmart One of the Fitbit's longtime best features, its crazy long battery life, is still very much present in the Charge 6 model. No matter how hard or how often you work out (or don't), the Fitbit Charge 6 gets roughly 6 full days and nights of battery life, which is key if you're also taking advantage of its outstanding Nightly Sleep Score feature. It's also now collaborating with Google, so it comes with great apps like Google Maps and Google Wallet preloaded. The other improvements are all for your health. The Fitbit Charge 6's heart rate tracking is up to 60% more accurate than previous models, a key feature when you're doing some serious cardio like HIIT workout or long runs. It has an accurate GPS system that pairs nicely with Google Maps, and the colorful display screen is customizable with different faces, along with timer and stopwatch features. With such a long battery life, the Fitbit Charge 6 keeps an eye on your essential health metrics all day and all night for accurate readouts. It can connect to several workout machines via Bluetooth at the gym, and it measures your active zone time, cardio fitness level, and workout intensity, along with oxygen saturation (SpO2), and 24/7 heart rate monitoring. The Fitbit Charge 6 gives you a daily readiness score to help you decide whether or not to hit the gym, along with gentle reminders to get up and move and a Smart Wake alarm clock feature. Not to fear, it also has Sleep and Do Not Disturb modes if that seems like a lot of notifications. All those features and the ones we didn't have room for could very easily be the product description of one of those high-end fitness smartwatches, but when you get to the bottom line, things change dramatically. Rather than fork over hundreds of dollars and sometimes even more for a smartwatch, the Fitbit Charge 6 bundled with six free months of Fitbit Premium membership is barely over $100 — just $111 right now at Walmart thanks to a deal cutting nearly $50 from the price.

Bare hands on food: San Angelo weekly restaurant inspections

The San Angelo/Tom Green County Health Department regularly monitors restaurants and food establishments for compliance with state food safety requirements.
