If we want to cut down on the sugar in our lives, what are we supposed to snack on? Here are some ideas. (Sugar hides in an awful lot of things, so this list comes with a caveat: read the labels on any prepared foods and skip those with added sugars.)
1. Nuts. They’re a good source of protein and healthy fats. They DO have a lot of calories, so we need to pay attention to quantity.
2. Popcorn. Full of fiber, which makes us feel full.
3. Celery and (your favorite nut) butter. Celery has fiber and nut butters have all the good qualities of nuts. DO check the nut butter label and choose one that has just nuts and maybe salt in it and not a bunch of added oils and sugars.
4. Veggies and hummus. Tasty, fibrous, full o’vitamins, and with a dash of legume protein!
Yum.
