When we're eating healthy, we feel better, but sometimes knowing exactly what constitutes a healthy meal can be confusing. Some people say to go low-carb, others say plant-based, the list goes on and on. One of the most highly debated topics is the concept of fat. Is fat good for you? Should you be eating fats to lose weight? Well, the answer is kind of complicated. There are good fats, like nuts, avocado, salmon, and olive oil, and then there are the bad fats that should be avoided, like trans fats. The tough part about high fat foods, though, is that they're usually more calorie-rich. If you're trying to lose weight or just watching your fat intake for other health reasons, these eight snacks are going to be your new best friend.
We're big fans of nonfat yoghurt and low-fat granola as a way to keep hunger pangs at bay and stay full and focussed. If you've got a major sweet tooth, though, don't worry, because there are options here for you too. The best part, though, is that all these picks are on Amazon, so you can start snacking ASAP!
