Summer is the season of sunshine, outdoor moments and often food temptations that can lead us astray from a healthy diet. However, maintaining a balanced diet during this season is not only possible, but it can also be delicious, especially with the nutritious options offered by Oh! My Snacks.
Here are some tips for enjoying the summer without compromising your dietary balance:
- Opt for light, fresh snacks: In the heat, there's a normal preference for lighter meals and options that make you feel fresher. Oh! My Snacks snacks are designed according to the time of year, guaranteeing lighter and more nutritious options that will satisfy you without being heavy, usually based on the freshness of fruit. Examples include our dehydrated fruit snacks, fruit bars and fruit balls, perfect for eating anytime, anywhere.
- Keep Portions in control: With more frequent social activities, it's easy to fall into the temptation of overeating. Oh! My Snacks are individually wrapped, helping you to control portions and avoid excessive food intake. Furthermore, on the packaging of each snack you will have access to its nutritional information so that you can more easily control your food intake throughout the day.
- Ensure your snacks are balanced: All nutrients are important at any time of year. However, in summer you're more likely to prioritise convenience over the nutritional balance of your snacks. With Oh! My Snacks, you can have the best of both worlds! Chosen specifically for you by dietitians, our snacks are formulated to offer the right nutritional balance, prioritising the intake of protein, fibre and healthier fats, while at the same time guaranteeing the convenience of being eaten anywhere, anytime. Individually wrapped and with no need to chill, whether they're bars, balls or salty fusions, you just have to choose what you're in the mood for each day.
- Maintain the structure of your eating day: It's often the case that schedules are more unregulated in summer, which consequently affects meals and the regulation of food intake. For this reason, it's important that you try to stick to your usual meal and snack times as much as possible. This will also make it easier for you to control your appetite and not fall so easily into the temptation to eat excessive amounts. Oh! My Snacks are perfect for helping you stick to a routine, as they are satiating and easy to consume between main meals, wherever you are.
Conclusion:
Maintaining a balanced diet in summer is easier and tastier than you might think, especially with the varied options Oh! My Snacks has to offer. Plan your snacks wisely and make the most of this season to stay healthy!
