Healthy snacks at work have become essential for most employees. Due to a lack of time, we tend to favour snacks that are high in sugar, on the go and very unhealthy most of the time. It can also happen that your lunch doesn't fill you up or, worse still, that you simply don't have time to eat. At Fika, we've got healthy, no-sugar-added snacks you can take anywhere! Need some original ideas for healthy snacks? Below is a non-exhaustive list of what you can find on our site:
1) Nuts
Nuts have to be at the top of your list. Studies have shown that nuts can help you maintain a heart-healthy diet because they reduce the level of low-density lipoprotein (LDL, or 'bad' cholesterol). As well as being heart-healthy, they are one of the best office snacks because they last so long.
2) Granola
The oats in granola provide significant amounts of fibre and iron, and the nuts and seeds provide the heart-healthy unsaturated fats we mentioned earlier. But be sure to read the label carefully as it can be very high in calories. A sweet and delicious snack in the morning or afternoon.
3) Dried fruit mixes
Better than mixed nuts! Of course, adding more healthy elements makes it better, but it still makes the list. A snack of dried fruit mix will give you the energy you need to get through the rest of the day.
4) Dark chocolate
Nutrient-rich dark chocolate can help you stay healthier. It is one of the world's best sources of antioxidants and is produced from the seed of the cocoa tree. According to studies, it can improve health and reduce the risk of heart disease. Fika offers a range of dark chocolate snacks, biscuits and bars that are 100% natural and contain no added sugar.
5) Seeds
Seeds are the ideal snack for a healthy office. They're little nutritional powerhouses that contain easy-to-digest fibre, healthy fats and minerals. They're easy to incorporate into a number of dishes or eat on their own.
Healthy snacks at work are therefore an ideal solution for staying fit, efficient at work and maintaining your health and figure. Fika offers you a whole host of made-to-measure snacks, 100% natural and with no added sugar! Fika gives you fast, convenient access to a variety of high-quality foods. And that's much better than munching on snacks that are bad for your body in the long term. In short, delicious, healthy, customisable snacks to give you or your employees a little daily treat!
