The only thing we like more than traveling is eating so when we got today's edition of Vital Juice Daily:Thirst for a Healthy Life we knew we had to repost it. If you've never heard of Vital Juice Daily, it's a daily email that provides tips and trends in health and nutrition and today's edtion was all about eating on the go which a lot of road trippers tend to do, especially during the summer months.

All aboard: Having a real meal (i.e. breakfast, lunch or dinner) before getting on a plane makes those cookies and pretzels going down the aisle much easier to pass up. Drink plenty of water too, to combat flight-caused fatigue and jetlag.

Dashboard dining: If your passenger seat bears a striking resemblance to a vending machine (think Doritos, popcorn and Famous Amos), it's time to hit the brakes. Bag serving size portions of nuts and veggies, and stash them in the glove compartment or bag.
