Are Your Cravings Getting the Better of You?
Don’t let your sweet tooth ruin all that effort you’ve put into staying fit and healthy. There must be a way to justly reward your taste buds without dislodging your diet, right? Absolutely, and here’s how.
Munch on Fruits
Fruits are nature’s candy. We’ve been blessed with apples, bananas, grapes and so much more. They all come packed with natural sugars alongside plenty of vitamins and fibers. Enjoy them fresh or get creative and puree them into a delicious smoothie.
Opt for Dark Chocolate
If you’re a chocolate lover, shift to the darker side. Dark chocolate carries less sugar but more of those beneficial antioxidants we all need. Aim for the varieties that contain 70% or more cocoa.
Include Some Nuts
Nuts are handy, nutritious and will definitely satisfy your sweet tooth. Almonds coated in a little honey can make a great replacement for those unhealthy snacks.
Hydrate with Infused Water
Turn your water into a sweet treat. Infuse it with fresh fruits such as strawberries, watermelon or peaches. A slice of cucumber or mint will add extra freshness.
Give Greek Yogurt a Try
Greek yogurt comes with a slightly sweet taste, lots of protein and probiotics. Add in some of your favorite fruits and you’ve got a healthy, sweet snack.
Remember Balance Is Key
In the realm of diet, all good things require balance. Satisfying your sweet tooth in a healthy manner is no different. Remember to have these healthier options in moderation.
