• Nurses work long shifts, often12 hours or more a day.

• Shift work can be a barrier to eating a healthy diet.

• Caffeine and convenient, high-caloric food are the most readily available options in hospitals.

Long shifts and short breaks mean that nurses are strapped for time and often turn to cafeterias and vending machines for their daily nutrition. A study on nurses&#; dietary behaviors quoted a nurse who had managed to only take two 30-minute lunch breaks over a three-week period. Nurses need healthy food they can eat on the go, and on this score they have an ally: the humble but hard-working lunch box.

Seemingly humble, anyway. You may associate lunch boxes or other containers with PB&Js and juice boxes. But there&#;s a new breed of food container, and it&#;s designed to help time-strapped professionals like you get the most out of limited lunch times. Here&#;s a closer look at seven highly rated lunch boxes that work as hard as nurses. As if that&#;s even possible.

Not Your Parents&#; Lunch Box

Vintage metal lunch boxes are still out there, cartoon characters and all. But these days, they&#;re more likely to wind up on display tables at the vintage store than at a hospital cafeteria. Today&#;s lunch boxes are rooted more in science than superheroes.

Nurses will appreciate insulated compartments that keep food cold, hot, and separate from each other. The lunch boxes contain specialized storage spaces for all manner of snacks, and most of the top models are packed with handy design features. They&#;re also easy to clean and maintain, adjustable for comfort and convenience, and as durable as your favorite pair of scrubs.

Here are our lunch box picks for the busy nurse.
