The Skinny on Sodium

There is a lot of talk these days about how much salt you need in your diet. How much is enough? How much is too much?

Every day, healthy, physically active people lose nutrients and minerals, including sodium, which are needed to ensure muscles are functioning properly. Meat inherently contains sodium. Meat snacks, such as jerky, also contain sodium – as do many other foods such as such as cheese, milk, yogurt, some fish, soups, salad dressings, pasta sauces, frozen meals, cookies, crackers, chips, some nuts and seeds, as well as canned and pickled foods.

In the U.S., the RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance) for sodium is 2,400 milligrams per day. The American Heart Association recommends 3,000 milligrams of sodium per day and in 2008, while the National Research Counsel states that sodium intake can be as high as 3,300 milligrams per day.

Essential minerals, including sodium, can be replaced by choosing a better-for-you snack like Jack Link’s Jerky. In fact, one satisfying 50-calorie serving of Jack Link’s Jerky contains approximately 380 milligrams of sodium. Plus, Jack Link’s Jerky is an excellent source of protein, is naturally low in calories, fat and carbs, and is trans-fat free. No empty calories here.

From cookies and crackers, to chips and cheese, when choosing your snacks, remember that Jack Link’s is a better-for-you snacking choice when considering recommended daily allowances.

Jack Link’s Jerky – finally, a snacking choice that you can feel good about.

Tips & Ideas For Staying Healthy This Holiday Season

Don’t forget about yourself this busy season! Check out this video from Business Wire for suggestions for keeping you and your loved ones healthy this season!

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Don’t forget about yourself this busy season! Here are some of Terra Wellington’s suggestions for keeping you and your loved ones healthy this season:

Stay Hydrated

Make sure to drink 8-9 glasses of water daily to boost energy levels and stay healthy. A cool gift idea to remind someone of this is the Glacier Water Eco-Friendly Water Starter Kit. It comes with reusable bags and water bottles to protect the health of our environment and all proceeds go to a program that brings clean water to the rural families of New Guinea.

Find a Good Tooth Brush

Holiday sweets taste great but can have adverse affects on our oral health. Find a good toothbrush to keep your mouth clean, like Sonicare’s power toothbrush called FlexCare+ that cleans deep between teeth and along gum lines. It has several modes, a two minute timer built in to remind you how long to brush, and includes a UV Sanitizer to kill bacteria left on the brush head.

Exercise

It can be hard to find time to exercise during the Holidays, so why not turn to technology! The Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum 2011 video game from D3Publisher is made for Wii™ and has a personal tracking system to keep track of your fitness goals. The only official video game created by Jillian Michaels, receive personal and exercise tips as you play to help balance the highs and lows of a workout and keep you motivated.

Get Your Protein

Tis’ the season of carbs and sweets galore. Make sure to choose protein-rich snacks between meals to regulate energy and fill you up, not out. For an on-the-go option, try Jack Link’s Jerky or Jack Link’s Nuggets, which are naturally high in protein and low in calories, fat and carbs. Plus, they taste great and make a fun stocking stuffer!
