1. HYDRATE Long hours in the sun + drinking alcohol will dehydrate you. Skip the sugary, sports drinks and drink a lot of water/try chasing or alternating alcoholic beverages with coconut water. You can add pedialite to your water too!
2. USE SUNSCREEN, WEAR SUNGLASSES &/ VISORS/HATS Protect your skin with SPF 30 (light skinned), 50 or higher (melanin poppin’). Don’t forget to reapply regularly. The sun can damage your eyes too, so protect them
3. DON’T FORGET HAND SANITIZERS/WIPES Even before Covid…Port-a-potties are gross, buying from vendors who may not sanitize is gross… Please still have your sanitizers handy to keep your hands as clean & as germ-free as possible.
4. EAT HEALTHY WHEN YOU CAN Late nights and long days make it easy to resort to fast food/junk food Stock up on protein-filled snacks like low-fat & low-sugar protein bars and nuts. Make your Turkey/Tuna sandwiches, pre-cook/slow cook dinner, so it’s ready when you get home.
5. SLEEP Prevent a breakdown on your immune system to avoid getting run down and sick
***BONUS TIP*** STRETCH ! Stretch and hydrate before the road march to avoid cramping and dead legs. You did not prep for this day to ride out Carnival in an ambulance or on the truck. See You on the Road! ***************************

START THE DAY RIGHT You may not be in control of lunch or dinner, but control what you eat when you wake up! Make it rich with Protein, Fibre and Energy. Try a giant Green Smoothie, fruit-based Protein Shake, a Spinach Omelette or hard boiled Eggs!
STOCK UP ON HEALTHY SNACKS The Supermarkets and Pharmacies near you may be closed. Stock up with Fruits and Veggies. Have Fruits as a snack or make a fresh Salad.
PLAN EXERCISE WITH A LOVED ONE Go for a Power Walk or Jog. If it’s a group of you, play a little scrimmage, go for a swim, try morning Yoga, whatever the vibe !
DRINK A LOT OF WATER. FLAVOUR IT! Add Cucumber and Lemon slices in your glass of water for a clean, refreshing taste. Have before each meal so that feel fuller for longer.
DON’T DEPRIVE YOURSELF, BUT SET LIMITS Have Dark Chocolate instead of white or milk. Take note and follow serving suggestions. Have 1-2 glasses of alcohol, preferably Wine. Peep Monster? Love yuh Bun & Cheese? Have after you’ve filled up on veggies & protein and eat slowly! Savour each bite.
***BONUS TIP***
GET REST! SLEEP!

You should know or get to know your body and patterns, how you feel when you eat certain foods.
? HEADACHES Possibly due to high Sodium and Dairy
?ACNE Bad carbs and NOT Grease, trigger Acne, such as carb-heavy fast foods like french fries, potato chips, hamburger buns, which may lead to acne breakouts
?HIGH CHOLESTEROL Usually a result of consuming foods with a lot of trans fat, that is, deeply fried foods.
?HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE Due to fast foods high in sodium Watch out for canned foods too! No need to add salt when seasoning! The mixed seasonings usually already contain salt. Read the labels.

Gabby Burgess of Suga Lifestyle at the Visueats Launch at AC Hotel on Friday, March 3, 2023.
Which Restaurant would you like to see with a proper Digital Picture menu?
I would like to see a few of my faves, Koi Sushi (Ig: @koisushija), Orchid Thai Restaurant (Ig: @orchidthaijamaica) and Nirvanna Global (Ig: @nirvannaglobalja) with one.
Waiting it out a little, but does the new Buzo Jamaica(Ig: @buzo.jamaica) have one?
Visueats is revolutionising the dining experience led by two phenomenal women in tech, Sophronia McKenzie and Tanesha Westcarr.
With Instagram, TikTok and more, we’ve been eating with our eyes. By seeing the dishes before they come out of the kitchen, Visueats allows us to choose what we want to eat without spying on plates passing by. Appetise with your eyes from the Menu first!
You could also get a headstart from home with the Visueats app. I encourage Restaurants to get with it and sign up!
