Quick Tips

  • Aim for at least 10g of protein per snack to meaningfully impact satiety
  • Pair protein with a small amount of healthy fat or fibre for slower digestion
  • Prep snacks in advance to avoid reaching for less nutritious options
  • Read labels carefully — many "protein" snacks are loaded with added sugar
