Eating healthy snack foods can be a good way to consume needed nutrients and calories. In healthy, normal-weight people, snacking seems to help them meet their daily energy needs and even helps incorporate more nutrients into their day. In contrast, overweight children and adults tend to snack on foods that are high in calories but low in nutrients. It is not surprising that what you choose to snack on matters.
The ideal snack contains three key nutrients: fiber, complex carbohydrates, healthy fat and sometimes protein. These nutrients keep you full longer and stabilize blood sugar levels, helping to keep your cravings at bay.
it is recommend to center your snacks around fresh whole fruits and vegetable produce. You are likely not eating enough produce. By focusing on fruits and vegetables, you will get some fiber along with water, to help you feel full for fewer calories. Vegetables and fruit also contain vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that are essential for your health and well-being. On top of all that, you will probably save money by building your own snacks around minimally-processed foods.
