The right type of snack can really help you losing weight. Healthy snacks ensure you won't be hungry come mealtime, keeping your fat-burning metabolism revved up.
Greek yogurt with raspberries and honey
Sweet, rich and filling, this trio feels completely indulgent. The combination of fiber, healthy fats, and protein will get you through any 3 p.m. Additionally, vitamin C in raspberries can increase your body's ability to burn fat.
Honey is not only a delicious sweetener but also offers countless health benefits. Its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties may help treat a number of diseases including diabetes and high blood pressure.
There is also some evidence that honey can help reduce body weight. Yogurt also appears to be linked to reduced body weight and smaller waistlines. It can also prevent you from gaining weight.
Grapes and walnuts
Like other fruits, grapes are super healthy. The water and fiber they contain can help keep your intestines healthy. Purple grapes also contain a pigment called anthocyanin, which has weight-loss effects (this pigment can also be found in other foods such as mulberries, blueberries and strawberries).
Snack on a cup of grapes and a handful of walnuts for a powerful combination of natural sugars, fiber, healthy fats and protein. This combination provides nutrients that provide lasting energy.
Oatmeal and blueberries
Oats aren't just for breakfast, they're great anytime you need a hearty snack. Full of fiber, they help regulate blood sugar levels to keep you from crashing. They can also help you reduce your body weight, body fat, and waist-to-hip ratio.
Meanwhile, blueberries add sweetness (and vitamin C) without any table sugar. Although they may be only somewhat associated with helping you lose weight, you may still want to add blueberries to your snacks for other reasons.
Blueberries may help reduce inflammation, improve your gut microbiome, regulate blood sugar, boost brain function, and protect your blood vessels. These benefits help reduce the risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and possibly even Alzheimer's disease.
Banana peanut butter
Spread a spoonful of peanut butter on the banana. Carbs will give you a quick mood and energy spike, while protein will sustain your energy for hours.
Bananas are high in potassium, an essential nutrient that all cells in your body need. Eating a banana won't fully meet your daily potassium needs, but it will get you off to a great start without worrying about gaining weight.
