Now this will make many of us happy popcorn and healthy? Yes, the yummy popcorn we often eat whilst enjoying a movie makes for a healthy snack that people on a weight loss diet can enjoy too. Popcorn is nutrient-dense which gives a feeling of satiety. It is also a wholegrain and has fibre, which means it is healthy. But hold your horses, the popcorn you get at movie theaters might not be the ideal choice.
The best way to snack on popcorn is to make it at home without using butter or oil. Go for the unsalted variety and not the flavoured ones. If you find it too bland, you can add oregano or mixed herbs instead of salt. This will lend it a unique flavour. You can make an entire packet at once and then store in an airtight box. Snack on it in the evening to keep those hunger pangs away.
Did you know a cup of popcorn has only 31 calories? And this amount can satiate you too? In case you still feel hungry, you can eat a fruit, which is again not too high in calories but on nutrition. So buy a pack of popcorn today and enjoy it guilt-free. Here are other healthy snacks that aid in weight loss.
