Pop-up on The Strip with free healthy snacks

Compass and the Workplace Vitality Hub are organizing this pop-up event during the Nationale Vitaliteitsweek to create awareness on the importance of healthy nutrition during our working days.

For example, did you know that….

Brain fuel

The brain consumes about 20% of the body's energy? A diet rich in complex carbs (like whole grains and vegetables) provides a steady supply of glucose, helping improve focus, memory, and productivity at work. In other words, our nutrition is brain fuel!

Mood boosters

Certain foods can positively affect our mood and stress levels? For example, dark chocolate, rich in antioxidants, can boost serotonin and endorphin levels, making you feel happier and more relaxed at work. These foods are absolute mood boosters!

Battery charger

The timing and composition of meals can significantly impact energy levels throughout the day? A balanced breakfast can prevent energy crashes, keeping you more alert and efficient at work. Your food scheme impacts how you charge your battery!

Why nutrition matters

Healthy eating habits are an essential part of a healthy lifestyle, also during work hours.

On average, employees have two to five eating moments during the day, in which healthy nutrition and sufficient hydration play an important role. In addition to boosting physical wellbeing, nutrition can also provide a moment of relaxation, social interaction and mild exercise during a working day, in the shape of, for instance, a lunch walk with colleagues or informal conversations at the coffee machine.

At the Workplace Vitality Hub we do research into vitality solutions at the workplace, amongst other into the effects of nutrition on the vitality of employees. Compass is one of the Business partners of the Workplace Vitality Hub, actively working on improving food options for working people on High Tech Campus and many other locations. Together we strive at a healthier, happier and more vital working population.
