David Culpepper, MD and clinical director of LifeMD, recommends stocking up on blueberries during a Sam’s Club shopping trip.
“Blueberries are loaded with antioxidants, and at Sam’s Club you can get 18 ounces of fresh blueberries — that’s a pound and a half — for a little over six dollars,” said Culpepper. “These are great on top of yogurt or blended into a smoothie.”
Price: $7.98
Sam’s Club also offers inexpensive deals on dates, which Culpepper said are extremely healthy.
“Dates have a high amount of fiber and, for such a deliciously sweet food, they have a relatively low glycemic index, meaning they release sugars into the bloodstream at a slower rate than most other dried or fresh fruits,” said Culpepper. “This makes them great to eat before a workout, on their own or in oatmeal, as they will provide you energy over an extended period of time.”
Price: $11.58 for 12-count pack
Stock up on Chobani Yogurt during your Sam’s Club shopping trip. Yogurt is a fermented food that helps reduce inflammation and improve overall gut health.
Buying yogurt in bulk will ensure you always have a few containers handy for everyone and keep you from worrying about running out or running low.
Price: $5.98
Seeking a tasty snack? Gutierrez recommends the Siete brand of tortilla chips, which are packed full of natural produce like avocado oil and chia seeds. If the Siete brand is sold out, try SkinnyPop Popcorn as a backup snack purchase.
Price: $10.28
Not a fan of traditional Greek yogurt? Registered dietitian Kelsey Sackmann, owner of Kelsey P. RD, recommends stocking up on Clio Greek yogurt bars as a gut-healthy breakfast or snack if you’re on the go.
“These perfectly-portioned Greek yogurt bars wrapped in dark chocolate are packed with eight grams of protein, billions of probiotics and lots of yum,” said Sackmann.
