Healthy Snacking During Winter

A few things in life may seem inevitable - death and taxes, for example - but weight gain during the winter is something we can control.

A few things in life may seem inevitable - death and taxes, for example - but weight gain during the winter is something we can control.

"With people's busy lives and being trapped indoors in the winter, it can be hard to pay attention to nutrition," explains Amber Johnson, a registered dietician in Portland, Ore. "Fortunately, there are convenient nutritional options that can be delicious, satisfying and calorie-friendly."

Portable Snacking
Many people want to get away in the winter, but getting there usually means fighting airport crowds or sitting in traffic. Then there are those hectic days spent shopping for gifts. Wanting snacks under duress, busy folks frequently grab whatever is easiest. That's often high-calorie, high-fat junk food that offers very little nutritionally. But packing a healthier snack can be just as satisfying and delicious for people on the go. Some snack suggestions include:

- Pumpkin seeds: low in fat, rich in potassium, magnesium and vitamin A. Great for those who like crunchy snacks.

- LUNA bars: Each LUNA bar, a whole nutrition bar designed especially for women, has just 170 calories to 180 calories. What's more, LUNA is full of nutrients women need every day, including folic acid for a healthy heart, soy protein for breast health and calcium for healthy bones. The bar tastes great too, the benchmark of any worthwhile snack.

- Dry cereal: low in fat, vitamin fortified.

- Trail mix: low in fat, but be careful what trail mix you buy or make. Those with lots of chocolate chips and peanuts are high in fat and calories.

Healthy Entertaining During the Winter

Just because you're having people over doesn't mean you have to send them home feeling stuffed, sleepy and three pounds heavier. Offer them foods that are satisfying and nutritious. Some of these include:

- Reduced-fat crackers with your favorite hors d'oeuvre combinations.

- Humus with pita wedges.

- LUNA bars, cut in halves or thirds. An all-natural, delicious finger food.

- Fruit kabobs with pineapple chunks, melon balls and ripe strawberries.

- Colorful, crunchy vegetables on a platter with tangy yogurt dip.

Healthy Gift Baskets

Gift baskets don't have to be all chocolate, cookies and nitrate-filled smoked meats. Instead, make your own gift baskets - and make them healthy. Include dried fruits, low-fat crackers, low-fat cheese and LUNA bars, whose colorful, festive wrappers are a lively addition to any special gift basket.

Tube Treats

The winter season is a time for families and friends to gather at home. It's also a great time for watching some of the best movies and sporting events on television. But no one has to get lulled into the TV snacking stupor. Even couch potatoes have healthy snack choices, including tortilla chips, popcorn popped in canola oil and LUNA bars, which come in four great-tasting flavors.

"Many people associate winter events with eating too much of the wrong things and regretting it later," Johnson says. "But with a little forethought, winter can be a time for great-tasting, healthy eating that can set the tone for the rest of the year."

For more information about LUNA bars, or to find the store nearest you that carries them, please call Clif Bar Inc., maker of LUNA, at (800) 884-5254, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. PST.
