Healthy snacks – HealthyBrum
In this category we have included a range of healthy snacks which can be eaten as an alternative to pre-packaged options. Snacking is often associated with an unhealthy diet and weight gain as some common unhealthy pre packed snacks can contribute to excess calorie, fat, sugar and salt intake. However, by changing your snacking habits to healthier options, sticking to recommended portions and planning your snacks in advance, snacks can form part of a healthy balanced diet. It is recommended that children should eat no more than 2 snacks which are each under 100 calories in a day. For more tips on how to improve your snacking habits: - Startwell Birmingham - 2 Snacks Max: https://startwellbirmingham.co.uk/2-snacks-max/ - Startwell Birmingham - Micky Me Size: https://startwellbirmingham.co.uk/mickey-me-size/ - Change for Life - 100 calorie snack: shttps://www.nhs.uk/change4life/food-facts/healthier-snacks-for-kids/100-calorie-snacks/ - The British Dietetics Association - Healthy snacks: https://www.bda.uk.com/resource/healthy-snacks.html - British Nutrition - Healthy snacking: https://www.nutrition.org.uk/healthyliving/helpingyoueatwell/snacking.html If you do buy pre packed snacks use the traffic light labels on the front of packaging to guide your choses. Pick snacks with more greens and ambers on the label, and cut down on snacks that show lots of reds.
