5 Essentials for Healthy Snacking

Munch on these healthy foods and watch your skin and body bask in the glory of health

Healthy snacking tips
Munch on apples, blueberries, spinach, and peppers. They are rich in calcium, magnesium, and potassium. They regulate blood pressure and keep certain cancers and heart disorders at bay.

Sink your teeth in dark chocolate. It reduces blood pressure in obese people, according to studies. Eating a small helping of flavanol-rich cocoa powder every day improves blood circulation in the skin. You will notice your skin getting smoother and softer too. Flavanols make your skin resistant to sun damage. Hey, this is no excuse to miss out on your sunscreen!

Love carbs? Gorge on whole grains. They are great energy boosters. Doctors say you need a minimum of 130 gm of carbs daily for sharp memory and concentration. Whole grains are rich in fibers that keep your energy levels constant and avoid high and low energy episodes. Fed up of whole wheat? Try oatmeals, multi-grain breads, grains cookies, and a whole lot of other delightful munches that your taste buds would love.

Use low-fat cottage cheese instead of sour cream for dips. Cheese is rich in protein. Skimmed milk helps to shed belly fat. Do you know just 1000 milligrams of calcium daily helps in bone mass maintenance during weight loss?



Nuts are powerhouses of antioxidants. If you wish glowing skin and hair, plus healthy weight, nibble on nuts. According to a study, people who ate almonds for 6 months lost up to 18 percent of their body fat and slimmed their waists. Scientists believe that protein and fiber content of almonds keeps hunger pangs at bay. Roast nuts for a crunchy delight. Skip the salt.
