29 HEALTHY SNACKS FOR WEIGHT LOSS, 29 SNACKS PARA PERDER PESO FACILMENTE

hile research on whether snacking aids weight loss is mixed, some evidence suggests that increasing your meal frequency through snacking may help manage hunger and improve blood sugar regulation (1Trusted Source).
Additionally, snacking can help you increase your intake of nutrient-rich foods like fruits and vegetables - and most people are not eating enough produce (2Trusted Source).
By planning ahead and focusing on nutrient-rich foods, snacks may support your weight management goals by managing hunger and keeping you satisfied between meals (3Trusted Source, 4Trusted Source, 5Trusted Source).
While no one snack will lead to weight loss, the following 29 healthy snacks may help you promote weight loss as part of an overall healthy eating pattern.
1. Mixed nuts
Nuts are an ideal nutritious snack, providing the perfect balance of healthy fats, protein, and fiber.
They’re linked to numerous health benefits and are very filling. Studies suggest that eating nuts in moderation may help you lose weight. Since they’re high in calories, aim to stick to about 1 ounce or 1/4 cup (6Trusted Source, 7Trusted Source, 8Trusted Source).
2. Red bell pepper with guacamole
Although all bell peppers are nutritious, red varieties are particularly high in antioxidants. Guacamole is also a rich source of nutrients and minerals (9Trusted Source, 10Trusted Source).
Pairing 1 large red bell pepper with 1/4 cup (60 grams) of guacamole combines the best of both foods while keeping the calorie count under 200 (Trusted Source9Trusted Source, 10Trusted Source).
3. Greek yogurt and mixed berries
Greek yogurt is high in protein, and berries are one of the best sources of antioxidants around (11Trusted Source, 12Trusted Source).
Add a mixture of differently colored berries to your yogurt to get an array of nutrients - and a mix of their sweet and tart flavors.
4. Apple slices with peanut butter
Apples are a fiber-rich fruit. Peanuts provide healthy fats, plant-based protein, and fiber - pretty much all of the filling nutrients you should look for in a snack (13Trusted Source, 14Trusted Source).
By combining apples with peanut butter, you’ll enjoy a crisp and creamy snack. Just look for one that only contains peanuts and salt and no added sugar (15Trusted Source).
5. Cottage cheese and fruit
Cottage cheese is high in filling protein, boasting 25 grams in just 1 cup (16Trusted Source).
Pairing cottage cheese with fruit complements the cheese’s protein and fat content with the fruit’s fiber, resulting in a sweet, creamy, and filling snack. Try it with tropical fruits such as pineapple, papaya, or watermelon.
6. Celery sticks with cream cheese
Celery sticks with cream cheese are a classic low carb snack that can help keep you feeling full.
This duo will have you enjoying a fiber-packed snack that combines a crunchy texture from the celery with creaminess from the cheese.
Snacking on 5 small celery sticks with about 1 ounce (30 grams) of cream cheese provides roughly 100 calories (17Trusted Source, 18Trusted Source).
7. Kale chips
Kale is incredibly healthy, as it’s loaded with fiber, antioxidants, and minerals and has a lower level of oxalic acid, an anti-nutrient that impairs calcium absorption, than many other leafy greens (19Trusted Source, 20Trusted Source).
Pairing kale with olive oil makes not only more delicious and crispy chips but also a more balanced and filling snack.
8. Dark chocolate and almonds
Dark chocolate and almonds are a fantastic pair. Dark chocolate contains antioxidants, and almonds are a rich source of healthy fats (21Trusted Source, 22Trusted Source, 23).
Try a couple of teaspoons of dark chocolate chips or a square of dark chocolate with a handful of nuts.
9. Cucumber slices with hummus
Cucumber’s fresh flavor and crunchy texture go very well with the rich creaminess of hummus.
Hummus is typically made from chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, and garlic. Thus, it provides a mix of plant-based protein, fiber, and heart-healthy fats (26Trusted Source).
Enjoying 1 cup (104 grams) of sliced cucumbers dipped in 2 tablespoons (34 grams) of hummus will help keep you full for under 100 calories (27Trusted Source, 28Trusted Source).
10. A piece of fruit
A piece of fruit can be an incredibly satisfying snack. Portable, easy-to-eat fruits include apples, pears, grapes, grapefruit, and oranges. A small container of berries can be a great, satisfying snack when you’re on the go.
Fruit contains fiber and minerals and makes a great small snack. To make it more satisfying, pair your fruit with nuts or yogurt.
