Why nuts and seeds make for the perfect snack while you work from home

We often pay so much attention to our main meals – breakfast, lunch, and dinner, we often forget to pay attention to the smaller meals - the snacks. Evening or mid-day snacking is extremely important to keep your metabolism boosted, help you control your portions, and to keep you satiated for longer. Eating a healthy, low-calorie, but high nutrient snack is extremely important.

Nuts and seeds are often recommended by health experts, nutritionists and dietitians for a weight loss, healthy and balanced diet. As we work from home, our eating habits have also gone haywire. Here are 5 reasons to convince you to include nuts and seeds as a part of your diet.

1. Save time: As work from home becomes working persistently, irrespective of work hours or days, it is important to ensure you consume a snack that is convenient, tasty, and healthy. Nuts and seeds are the best foods to eat in this case. They require no cooking, or preparation, and can just be consumed whenever you want to eat them.
2. Rich source of fibre: Nuts and seeds make for a healthy snack, may aid weight loss, and can also help manage type 2 diabetes due to their low-calorie content. Nuts and seeds such as walnuts, almonds, chia seeds, flax seeds, etc help to increase the fibre content of the food, which can help to aid digestion, lose weight.
3. Nutrients: Nuts and seeds are rich in nutrients such as vitamins. They are an easy and convenient source of potassium as well. Including them in your diet ensures that you get at least some amount of the dietary intake required by your body.
4. Can help manage weight: The rich fibre content of nuts and seeds helps to fill you up with very little food. This helps to curb appetite, and practice portion control.
5. Great for a diabetic diet: Small meals at regular intervals are recommended for people with diabetes, as it helps to keep their blood sugar levels managed. Nuts and seeds are a low-calorie, no-sugar snack that is ideal for diabetics to keep their blood sugars in a safe range.
