Organizing a day at the beach for enjoyment is a fun experience that you can include in this summer, from using sunscreen, appropriate clothing, hydrating and very important what foods to bring and what are those that you should avoid consuming.
The best thing to do if we want to bring our own food is to keep in mind that the food that we can eat cold, that is not heavy to digest or that does not spoil in the heat.
Basic recommendations
Keep the sauces on the side and not mixed with the food, this is the case with mayonnaise, tomato or dressing sauces.
Carrying a portable cooler could be useful to manage the temperature of the food and give it a longer shelf life.
Use “tuppers” or containers to store food, and thus avoid mixing flavors or spoiling food when handling it. These must be clean.
Because you need good refrigeration, preferably foods such as potato tortillas, foods that contain eggs, dairy-free desserts, fresh cheese or seafood, recommends El Cierre Digital.
Bringing fruits, in salads, cans of tuna or sardines and canned vegetables, is the most recommended due to its easy handling.
Foods that we should not take to the beach
Beef is one of the least recommended foods to take to the beach due to its high fat and protein content that causes slower and heavier digestion.
Because they contain high levels of sodium, it is recommended to avoid chips or bag snacks that increase thirst.
It is not recommended to bring raw or marinated fish, shellfish, sushi in order to avoid poisoning.
Drinks with high amounts of sugar or carbonated can influence blood glucose sugar spikes causing inflammation, drowsiness and headache.
It is also not recommended to bring food leftovers from days before a day at the beach, recommends the Nius portal, since they could generate bacteria and poisoning, especially if they have not been properly stored in the fridge.
