Snacking doesn’t have to be bad. The term “snacks” has often been associated with unhealthy treats like potato chips and ice cream. However, snacks need not necessarily be junk food. Nutritious snacks are a real thing, and can be considered as a supplement for your current diet.
Treat yourself to some of these tasty and healthier snacks!
Fruits
Fruits are packed with health benefits as they are naturally low in fat, calories and sodium. They are also healthy snacks when you feel like munching. Fruits are naturally packed with antioxidants, fibre, minerals, vitamins and phytonutrients. They can also promote healthy skin and help you fight against viral and bacterial infections.
Yoghurt
Yoghurt is a good source of calcium, protein, potassium and probiotics that are good for your heart and gut. It also strengthens your immune system and helps fight osteoporosis.
Nuts and Seeds
Nuts and seeds are not only popular as stand-alone snacks, they also add nutritional value to meals, snack foods, desserts, and more. Packed with protein, healthy fats, fibres, vitamins and mineral, mixed nuts and seeds can help reduce the risk of heart disease, lower cholesterol levels and may also help prevent certain cancers.
Oatmeal
Oatmeal is one of the most nutrient-dense foods around. A good complex carbohydrate and rich in fibre, it can help you reduce weight, lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels.
