  2. Check Serving Size • Check the serving size on the nutrition label. • This tells you how much of the snack the nutritional info is based on. • This helps you understand how much you’re actually consuming. • Always compare the serving size to how much you plan to eat to keep track of your intake.

  3. Look at Calories • Look at the calorie count on the label. • This shows how much energy you get from one serving of the snack. • If you’re watching your weight, lower calorie snacks are often better. • Compare the calorie count to your daily needs. • Eating too many calories can lead to weight gain. • Choose snacks that fit your calorie goals.

  4. Examine Total Fat • Check the total fat amount on the label. • Fat is a source of energy but can affect your health. • Look for snacks with less total fat. • Pay attention to the types of fat. Saturated fat and trans fat are not good for you. • They can increase health risks. • Unsaturated fats, like those in nuts, are better choices. • Choose snacks with lower saturated and trans fats.

  5. Consider Fiber Content Look at the fiber content on the label. Fiber helps with digestion and makes you feel full. Choose snacks with more fiber because they are better for your health. Fiber helps keep your digestive system working well. It also helps you not feel hungry too quickly. Snacks with higher fiber can be more filling and satisfying. Check the label to see how much fiber is in each serving.

  6. Check for Added Sugars • Check the added sugars on the label. • Added sugars are extra sweeteners added to food. • Too much added sugar can lead to health problems like weight gain and diabetes. • Look for snacks with less added sugar. • The label will show how many grams of sugar are added. • Try to choose snacks with no added sugars or very little. • Choosing Santra Wali candy online with low added sugar helps keep your diet healthier and more balanced.

  7. Evaluate Protein Levels • Look at the protein content on the label. • Protein helps build and repair muscles and keeps you feeling full. • Choose snacks with a good amount of protein. • Protein can help you stay satisfied and avoid overeating. • Check how much protein is in each serving. • Snacks with more protein can be better for your diet. • They also help keep your energy levels steady. • Make sure the protein level fits your nutritional needs and goals.

  8. Review Sodium Levels • Check the sodium amount on the label. • Sodium is another name for salt. • Too much sodium can lead to high blood pressure and other health problems. • Choose snacks with less sodium. • The label shows how many milligrams of sodium are in each serving. • Try to pick snacks with lower sodium levels to keep your heart healthy. • High sodium snacks can be harmful if eaten too often. • By choosing snacks with less sodium, you support better overall health and avoid excess salt.

  9. Check Ingredients List Look at the ingredients list on the label. Ingredients are listed by how much is in the snack, from most to least. If sugar, unhealthy fats, or artificial additives are listed at the top, the snack may not be very healthy. Choose snacks with whole, natural ingredients. Avoid snacks with long lists of hard-to-pronounce chemicals. This helps you avoid extra sugars and unhealthy fats.

  10. Look for Whole Grains • Check if the snack has whole grains. • Whole grains are better than refined grains. • They keep more nutrients and fiber. • Fiber helps with digestion and keeps you full. • Look for whole grains listed in the ingredients, like whole wheat or oats. • Snacks made with whole grains are usually healthier. • Avoid snacks with refined grains like white flour. • Whole grains are a smarter choice for better health and nutrition.

  11. Watch for Health Claims • Watch out for health claims on the package. • Some snacks say they are “healthy” or “natural” but may not be. • These claims can be misleading. • Always check the actual nutrition label for real information. • The label shows the true amount of calories, fat, sugar, and other nutrients. • Rely on the nutrition facts, not just the claims on the front. • This helps you make better choices and avoid snacks that seem healthy but aren’t. • Be cautious and always read the label carefully.
