I know these look cute and fun…however, let’s take a look at some of the ingredients so you can make an informed decision when a choosing a snack. 🫣

Corn=Genetically modified and highly processed (will increase insulin quickly)

Vegetable Oil=Oxidizes and may cause systemic inflammation (lethargy, pain, brain fog)

Maltodextrin=Highly processed, flavorless carbohydrate that will increase insulin quickly

Monosodium Glutamate=Flavor enhancer that acts as an excitotocin (will overstimulate neurons in the brain leading to the suppression of feeling full…you will keep eating)

Artificial color (Yellow 5 & 6)=Causes adrenal tumors in animal studies and are banned in other countries

Sucralose (aka Splenda)=Made from dextrose, this artificial sweetener is almost exactly like sugar and will increase insulin quickly

*Raising insulin quickly with these types of ultra processed foods will negatively affect weight loss efforts and may result in a drop in blood sugar later, leading to more sugar cravings.

A better choice for snacking would be a whole, unprocessed food; or, at least choose foods with 5 ingredients or less and make sure there are not added sugars or vegetable oils (e.g., Meats, raw nuts, organic fruits & vegetables, yogurt). 😋

Happy ❤️ Day everyone! 💪🏼

Just another day at the office. 😜 and a reminder to do what you love today 🫶🏻
