23 Healthy Snacks To Balance Your Blood Sugar Levels (4 of 5)

Lentils

Similar to chickpeas, companies have gone through creative methods to make other foods more snackable and Lentils are no different. Specifically, Seapoint Farms Mighty Lil’ Lentils offer delicious Texas barbecue flavors and are loaded with fiber too.

Also worth noting is lentil-based foods are known to support healthy blood sugar levels, especially when they’re compared to potato-based items.

Tuna Bean Salad

Before you knock down the suggestion keep in mind we’ve just talked about a few beans being pretty good. Now imagine combining that with tuna and you got a nice combo. For those who need something a little bigger for their snack, we’d try out Wild Planet’s Wild Tuna White Bean Salad.

Almond Butter

Obviously, this is ideal as a spread or in combination with something else. And one particular brand that makes this easier is Justin’s Classic Almond Butter which comes in small squeeze bags that you can put into your bag. You can pair it with a piece of fruit or some whole-grain crackers and these packets will provide a good amount of protein and healthy fats.

Protein Bars

We’ve mentioned probiotic bars already so it makes sense protein bars would make this list too.

They are a staple for busy weekdays, however, the issue with these bars is they are loaded with sugar. This isn’t the case though with Quest Blueberry Cobbler Hero Bars which come with 16 grams of protein and three grams of net carbs.

How it got this low was that it has allulose, a low-calorie sweetener that even your body metabolizes differently than typical sugar.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix

Traditional chocolate chip cookie mix is definitely not a good idea, however there are several brands that have created some much healthier options. Take for example Swerve Sweets.

Their chocolate chip cookie mix uses the sweetener erythritol as its base. This means that there is a total of six net carbs per serving compared to the massive amount that typical table sugar has.
