The Power-Packed Snack Lineup
When hunger strikes, it’s tempting to grab whatever is closest. But what if the closest thing could also be wholesome and nutritious? Enter the mighty nuts and seeds. Almonds, walnuts, chia, and flax seeds aren’t just rich in essential fatty acids; they’re packed with protein. Just a handful can keep you full and focused.
