1. Low sugar content:
When choosing sugar-controlled snacks, we should pay attention to the options with lower sugar content. Check the nutrition information table on the product label, pay special attention to the content of "sugar" or "sugar", and choose snacks with lower sugar content. Avoid choosing foods that contain too much added sugar.
The best choice is meat snacks. In fact, if you look at the nutrient list carefully, you will find that the carbohydrate content of meat snacks is very low. For example, the beef jerky in Horqin has a simple ingredient list, which is basically beef and salt, so it is very suitable for sugar control.
Air-dried beef is delicious, and a small piece can be chewed for half a day ~ so don't worry too much about salt intake. Eat too much and be cheeky, and naturally give up. The nutrient composition table is attached.
2. High fiber content
Looking for snacks with high fiber content is helpful to slow down the absorption of sugar and maintain the stability of blood sugar level. Fiber can increase satiety, delay digestion and reduce the glycemic index of food. Choose snacks containing nuts, seeds, whole grains or other grains, which are usually rich in fiber. At the same time, avoid over-processed food, because the processing process may reduce the fiber content in food.
Ah Hu strongly recommends konjac food, with almost zero carbohydrate content and high fiber content, and the snacks of crops are also very satisfying. My favorite brand is Wei Long's Konjac Cool ~ Konjac Cool, which has a really high fiber content and is not a heavy burden as a snack.
In addition to high fiber, the overall heat is also very low. Attach a nutrient composition table ~ a small bag of about 8.5g, and eating two bags is enough to satisfy your craving. On average, calories are almost negligible, not to mention the content of carbohydrates.
3. Natural ingredients, no additives:
When choosing sugar-controlled snacks, try to choose foods made of natural ingredients and avoid snacks containing artificial additives and preservatives. Give priority to snacks that use natural sweeteners instead of artificial sweeteners. Read the product label, understand the ingredients list of snacks, and avoid choosing foods containing too many chemicals.
Ah Hu's other favorite snack is nuts, because nuts are almost the most primary processed snack-freshly baked. Moreover, the nuts themselves are delicious without too much seasoning and have a strong sense of fullness. A handful of nuts can last an afternoon. Ah Fu likes nuts very much.
Reasonable collocation, of course, you can choose according to your own preferences. For example, I don't like hazelnuts very much, so I will choose this combination without hazelnuts. The nutrient composition table is also here ~ you can see that carbohydrates are very low, which is very beneficial to sugar control.
By choosing snacks with low sugar content, looking for options with high fiber content, and giving priority to snacks with natural ingredients and no additives, we can better control the sugar intake, maintain the stability of blood sugar level and meet the taste needs of snacks. At the same time, moderate consumption is still the key, even sugar snacks should pay attention to the overall calorie intake and consumption.
