When looking for healthy snacks first consider foods that are as unprocessed as possible. A balanced diet is also important, so selecting snacks from a range of food groups is a good start. Fresh fruit and veggie sticks are a good choice. Add yoghurt or a healthy dip like hummus for extra protein. Seeds and nuts make good snacks, but again variety is the key – make a trail mix combining all your favourites. Energy balls, superfood bowls, green smoothies and raw food recipes can be a good option as they often have less sugar and more whole food ingredients than processed snacks. If purchasing snack foods the Nutrition panels on packaging can also help you to consider intake of energy, protein, carbs, fats and sodium.
