What is healthy eating?
Eating a healthy diet allows our bodies to stay healthy and protected. Healthy eating means that we consume all the nutrients that are essential for our bodies. Those who have decided to take care of what they eat can now enjoy good health and a better quality of life.
Are you also among this group of people? Keep in mind that if your diet is not healthy, you will be more likely to suffer from diseases such as diabetes, osteoporosis, anemia, and many others, so the decision to improve your quality of life depends only on you.
Benefits of a healthy diet
These are the reasons why this type of diet is the best choice, according to the World Health Organization:
- You protect your body from malnutrition.
- You prevent the development of non-communicable diseases.
- You reduce risk factors for your health.
- You prevent overweight and obesity.
Keep in mind that healthy eating habits start in the first years of life, breastfeeding promotes healthy growth and improves cognitive development. In addition, it can provide long-term benefits, including reducing the risk of overweight and obesity and non-communicable diseases later in life.
Why can snacks be good for you?
Snacks are good for you, as long as you include healthy snacks and do it carefully. Small snacks between meals can prevent you from overeating and help control your weight.
Healthy snacks for adults can provide energy for work and exercise. Healthy snacks and drinks for children provide plenty of energy needed for growth, school, and sports. Offer healthy snacks to young children and they will likely choose them on their own when they grow up. Avoid snacks with added sugar to help keep teeth healthy.
Eating a variety of snacks like those listed above will provide more vitamins, minerals, fiber, antioxidants (substances that help prevent cell damage), and other nutrients that fight disease. Choosing low-calories snacks can help you or your child maintain a healthy weight.
Limit alcoholic beverages and high-calories processed snacks like French fries or cookies. Include a glass of water with your snacks instead of a sugary drink.
If you have diabetes, you may also need to pay attention to the amount of carbohydrates in your snacks.
We are all different, so if you know you feel hungry between meals, you should prepare your own healthy snacks. Here are some points to consider:
- Always try to include a protein source. For example, peanut butter or other nuts, soy yoghurt, seeds, cream of vegetables such as hummus.
- Choose foods from other food groups. That is, fruits, vegetables, grains, and cereals.
- Be careful with your portions, they have to be small, no more than can fit in the palm of your hand, i.e. a handful of nuts, granola, etc.
- Always have your snacks ready and at hand. So there is no excuse.

How to choose the right healthy snacks list for kids
- Use snacks as a way to increase the intake of fruits and vegetables. Most children do not eat the recommended amount of fruits and vegetables. Snacks offer a great opportunity to improve access and exposure to these nutrient-rich foods. Consider combining them with dairy products or substitutes (such as grapes and cheese), lean proteins (such as celery and peanut butter), or whole grain cereals and breads (such as the banana sandwich on whole grain bread).
- Keep a variety of healthy foods on hand at home. It is much easier to make simple, healthy snacks when you have a few key items on hand at home. Ideas might include different types of raw fruits and vegetables, yoghurt dip…
- Avoid processed foods and foods with added sugars. Processed foods (made in a factory and sold in packages) are poor in nutrients and often high in sugar and salt. Also, after eating processed foods, children may become hungry again sooner.
- Teach your children to eat a rainbow of colours. Organize your children’s food in an attractive way to show them the beauty of fresh and colourful foods. Talk about the farms where the food comes from and the farmers who help grow the food.
