Creating A Balanced + Healthy Snack Box

Wondering how to pack a snack box that's actually going to fill you up, satiating both your appetite and taste buds? Be sure to include sources of healthy fats and protein along with carbohydrates for a well balanced snack. Protein in particular is the most satiating macronutrient because it inhibits the production of ghrelin - aka the "hunger hormone"!  

Processed foods - which are high in fat, sugar, refined ingredients, and other additives will often leave us feeling bloated and lethargic. In contrast, these whole food based snacks are going to give you a boost of energy, helping you to feel revitalized, clear minded, and well nourished until your next meal!
