Components of a Healthy Snack
Snacks that contain protein and fiber are ideal for helping to keep us fuller for longer and prevent a blood sugar spike. The combination of these two macronutrients together stabilizes our blood sugar while fueling our bodies.
Pairing a piece of fruit that contains fiber with a source of protein provides more staying power and other beneficial vitamins and minerals needed for energy production. There are endless nutritious combinations you can create in your kitchen with this formula, especially based on the season to keep snacks fun and exciting.
Making healthy choices this time of year doesn’t have to be all or nothing. Keep portion sizes in check of the treats you like, and balance it out by choosing snacks and meals that help nourish your body and keep you feeling your best on a daily basis.
Whether it’s movie night, a fall picnic, a Halloween party with a Charcuterie board, or a trip to the pumpkin patch you can feel good knowing these healthy Halloween treats that provide good nutrition to help keep you energized and ready to celebrate the season!
