How I carry supplements when I travel
Determined to bring your whey or collagen with you?
Here are some handy ways to do that.
Snack-sized baggiesare great for single servings of whey or collagen powder.
I write protein powder on the outside, and stuff the baggies inside my shaker cup.
I likethese 3"x6.5" bags, which have the seal on the short side.
Theyre a lot easier than standard sandwich baggies to pour into a cup without spilling.
Some supplements come in doses too small for the baggies to be convenient.
For example, I have a powdered supplement that requires about a teaspoonful per serving.
For those,these screw-top tinsare perfect.
I put one serving in each tin, and pack the tins with my toiletries.
For anything that comes in gummy or pill form, like vitamins, I like to usemint tins.
Altoids tins (or a similarly sized plain tin, likethese) are perfect.
Just wrap a rubber band around them so that they cant pop open en route.
Screw-top tinscan hold smaller amounts of powderanything where youd use a teaspoonful or tablespoonful per serving.
TheseAltoid-sized tinswill hold gummy vitamins or pills.
