2. Truck Driver Health – Eat Your Fruits & Vegetables

3. Truck Driver Health – Avoid Unnatural Stimulants
There was a time where use of stimulants in our industry was very common. I am not saying that now is not, but at list is not to the level it used to be. It is well known that stimulants are acting bad on the professional drivers health or anyones health in matter of fact.
There are different types of stimulants, from coffee and red bull or other energy drinks, to some drugs like cocaine. Avoid those! They might give you the immediate energy and alertness you need, but the use of these artificial boosts will cause some serious issues with your health, sooner or later.
You can’t fuel your body with stimulants! Your body knows when rest is needed!
