Your Diet Plan Won't Be Ruined By These Snacks - Slurrp

When even the worst craving comes, we've compiled a list of healthy foods to help satisfy your hunger. Since these snacks are loaded with healthy ingredients, they also provide additional health benefits, which adds to their enjoyment. 

Trail Mix 

Nuts, seeds, and dried fruit are used to make trail mix, making it a nutritious snack. It's high in protein, heart-healthy, and effective in lowering blood sugar. According to Healthline, any seeds in your trail mix are likely to be loaded with loads of minerals and vitamins, including magnesium. Consequently, your trail mix not only keeps your heart healthy but also keeps you energised during that afternoon slump. One thing to remember is that not all trial mixtures are created equal. Due to the addition of so many chocolates and candies, some can be quite sugary. Stick to trail mix with dark chocolate if you're craving something sweet. 

Popcorn 

You don't even need to be watching a movie to enjoy popcorn; in fact, it's generally best if you aren't, as a big popcorn at your preferred theatre can have almost 1000 calories and more sodium than you need each day. Therefore, despite the fact that we may connect popcorn with a huge tub of buttery confection, the popcorn you should be snacking on is a healthy variety cooked at home. Pop it in the air and use minimal seasoning. 

Watermelon 

In the sweltering summer, watermelon is a popular refreshing treat for a reason. According to HealthyWomen, this food is low in calories and high in water (up to 92 percent), which keeps you hydrated and contributes to its delicious flavour on particularly hot and muggy days. Furthermore, the lovely pink hue isn't just for show. According to WebMD, the antioxidant lycopene, which is responsible for the colour, has been linked to a reduction in the risk of diabetes and cancer. 

Hummus 

Hummus is a wholesome snack that will do the job well — and by job we mean satisfy your hunger — because it is packed with good dietary fibre. Chickpeas, a potent legume with amazing health benefits on their own, are used to make hummus. Other noteworthy components used to make hummus include garlic and olive oil, both of which have anti-inflammatory properties. 

Apple with Peanut Butter 

It's hardly news to learn that apples are healthy. We already know apples are full of health advantages because they are said to "keep the doctor away." Pectin, a type of fibre abundant in apples, has immune system and gastrointestinal health benefits. But did you know that the act of chewing an apple has additional advantages? As you take your time eating rather than gulping it down and not truly enjoying it, chewing really helps you feel fuller more quickly. As a result, we advise leaving the skin on and eating more.
