If anyone needs an energy boost, it’s got to be busy mums. Plus, adding kids to the usual everyday grind can easily wear you out, super fast. And if you have a full-time career too, then you need an even bigger boost! Sometimes, maintaining a balanced diet isn’t even an option especially on days when work has piled up and kids are on a roll. Fortunately, there are a whole load of healthy on-the-go, ready-to-eat snacks you can reach for to boost those energy levels, giving you an immediate lift in your step as well as steadying your blood sugar levels to keep you going for longer.

REVIVE

Revive began because they believe that when it comes to food, no one should have to compromise on taste for health. Their products are crafted with natural and wholesome ingredients. The company also promises that their products will always lead with a nutrient-rich first ingredient. These include whole grains, nuts or seeds, and all other ingredients used are beneficial to your health. Revive specialises in delicious granolas, overnight oats and natural nut butters that are made with top quality ingredients. Their granolas are not too sweet and taste all-natural. The Earl Grey Granola with Macadamia is baked with puff rice for an extra crunch and is absolutely divine. Nut lovers will love the subtle-earthly tones of their Matcha, Cashew and Almond flavour.

Best part? Revive’s convenient healthy snack packs that not only tempt taste buds but fulfil your nutrition needs. Mums, add Revive’s naturally sweet, great-tasting granola on yogurt or into your açai bowl and you’ve got yourself a healthy treat!
