5 unhealthy snacks to avoid
A snack is a mandatory meal between breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Therefore, it should be as light as possible, for example, it can be berries, fruits, a handful of nuts, yogurt, or healthy sandwiches.
The FoodOboz editorial team shares a list of 5 foods that should never be used for a snack in order not to harm the body.
1. Any sausage products
These are very controversial products not only for snacking but in general. It is very rare to find a truly natural, good sausage. It mainly contains soy, animal fats, and various chemical additives that are very harmful to the body.
2. Donuts
They are very fatty and high in calories, as they contain butter, sugar, and flour, and are fried in oil, often topped with chocolate and powdered sugar. It is better to exclude them from your diet altogether, not just for snacking.
3. Processed cheeses
This is cheese waste, which contains absolutely nothing useful and even vice versa - it is very harmful to the body.
4. Packaged juices
Remember that all packaged juices are made from fruit concentrate, which is diluted with a lot of sugar and citric acid, as a result, you get a "vitamin" bomb with flavors and preservatives. A better alternative may be freshly squeezed homemade juices.
5. Potato chips and crackers
As a rule, these products are cooked with the cheapest oil, they contain a lot of preservatives, flavors, and flavor enhancers, which are very harmful to the body.
The best option for a healthy and tasty snack can be homemade pies, casseroles, cheesecakes, natural sweets, marshmallows, fresh vegetables, natural yogurt, berries, and nuts.
