This is the Third millennium and most of the merchandise is still moved by trucks on land. Hundreds of thousands of truckers are on the road on any given day. They sit there, wait for loads, eat wherever from whatever. Their health is endangered but it doesn't have to be that way. By their huge numbers, they can drive change in our society. Help them do just that. Keep them healthy and happy.

Nuts and Seed Mix
My Trucker keeps a container of this mix next to him so when he really needs to munch on something, he has goodies to reach for.
You can buy mixes ready made but I do not recommend them. They are salty, have some dried fruit that is high in sugar calories that you don't need when doing a sitting job.
I buy unsalted, raw or roasted on low heat so the heat doesn't kill the goodness of the nuts.
Now remember, although nuts and seeds are very important for their good fat, protein and vitamin-mineral content, they are high in calories so you only need a handful a day.
He mixes Brazil nuts, pumpkin seeds, almonds, and filberts.
I also recommend some walnuts into your mix.
In one day you are advised to have up to 20 almonds or 9 walnuts or 5 Brazil nuts.
So he has a few of each every day to keep a nice balanced diet.
For Your Health!
