Healthy snacks for more energy

Healthy snacks for more energy

If you need a snack to keep your energy levels up, it’s best to keep two things in mind. First, eat a real, healthy snack and not a full meal. In other words, keep it small, because a snack should not overload your stomach; it should just take away your feeling of hunger, but no more. Second, choose a healthy snack you have not eaten before that day, or that you won’t eat again that day. This way you can give your body different nutrients.


Healthy snacks, other than vegetables with dips

Healthy snacks are not only good for keeping up your energy levels throughout the day, but they also offer you the chance of putting some variety in your diet and filling up the holes in your daily need for certain nutrients. Because sometimes your three meals a day just don’t provide you with all the healthy fats, carbohydrates and proteins your body needs to function properly. Complimenting your meals with healthy snacks is then a good idea.

Vegetables with a dip or a piece of fruit are great examples of a complimentary healthy snack, but there are other options as well. Chantal Voets’ muesli bars, for instance, are healthy snack bars that can be made days in advance and can be frozen, making them available whenever you want. You can also freeze slices of cake, such as Rineke Dijkinga’s banana lemon cake (+link), and use them as healthy snack bars to go.

Create variety, also in your healthy snacks

Eating vegetables with a dip or a piece of fruit as a snack, is definitely a good choice. Amanprana also has recipes for dips and salsa to choose from, but as always it is important to vary, however small your snacks are. As we’ve said before, Amanprana strongly believes that variety is the only way to make sure that your body has all the building blocks for staying healthy.

Do you not have any vegetables, fruits or other healthy snacks around? Let’s hope then, that there’s a pot of Gula Java Matcha nearby. Each of our performance drinks can act as the perfect healthy refreshment. Because of the low glycemic index of the coconut blossom sugar, our energy drinks gradually provide energy for the body, but the Gula Java Matcha in particular is suited for those who want to give their concentration levels a boost of healthy energy. Amanprana considers Gula Java Matcha to be the ideal healthy refreshment for students.
