Satisfy Your Salty/Crunchy Cravings With This Fat-Burning Snack

      by Biotrust

    Let's face it.  We all get cravings, and we all give in to them.

    BUT, when you understand how to choose the right foods, you can still satisfy your every craving without screwing up your diet or being overwhelmed with feelings of guilt.

    For example, let's say you get a craving for something salty and crunchy... it's a pretty common craving.  Unfortunately, it often leaves us reaching for terrible processed foods like potato chips and pretzels—foods that certainly aren't going to have a positive effect on your fat loss goals or your health.

    But, what if you had a go-to salty and crunchy food that you could turn to in these instances that was actually healthy for you and your waistline?  Well you do...

    Almonds!

    almondsAlmonds are loaded with healthy fats and protein that will keep you feeling full for hours, which makes them a terrific fat-burning snack to scratch that salty/crunchy craving itch.

    And here's another tip (after all, two tips are better than one):  While almonds are great, it's easy to overeat almost any food when eating straight out of the container.  In fact, research shows that you will eat on average two to three times MORE of a food when eating out of the container compared to when you pre-portion your food out into a bowl.

    For almonds, we've found that one ounce, the typical serving size, is the perfect amount to set aside for a great fat-burning snack that will satisfy your cravings while holding you over until your next main meal.
