Get the lox you love
Lox has just as many heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids as fresh salmon. But you’ll usually find it on top of a high-calorie bagel, which has fast-digesting carbs without much fiber, fat, or protein. This means you’ll end up with a blood sugar spike that leaves you sluggish later.
Swap it out for an 8-inch whole wheat tortilla, then top it off with two tablespoons of light cream cheese, an ounce of smoked salmon, and as much cucumber, arugula, and sprouts as you’d like before rolling it up.
