Pretzels
When you’re itching for a salty, crunchy snack, there’s nothing quite like pretzels or potato chips. While high-calorie chips are widely known for being less-than-ideal snack choices, are pretzels healthy? They are generally low in calories and can be decent nutritionally depending on the specific type, especially if they’re homemade or contain wheat flour alternatives.
Crunchy pretzels are well-known for being low-fat, salty snacks. They don’t have much fiber, so they are often tolerated by people following a low-fiber diet for digestive reasons. They are high in simple carbs to provide a quick source of energy before or during a workout.
Nowadays, there are many flavored versions to choose from, like honey-mustard or spicy buffalo wings, which run about 140 calories per serving.
