Weight Loss Tip #103 — Snack on roasted chana
Losing weight is all about eating smartly without starving. But that doesn’t mean you eat light but snack on processed or junk food. Instead, snacking on healthy and high-fiber food will not only help you to manage weight but also aid in weight loss. One such easily available and filling snack you can have is roasted chana (bhuna chana). And the best part is that even diabetics can include this in their evening snacks.
High in fibre: According to a study published in the journal Advances in Nutrition, black chickpeas, when coupled with low-caloric diet, help in weight loss. A bowl of roasted chickpeas contains 12.5 gms of fibre. That not only keeps you full for a longer time but also prevents hunger pangs. But remember to eat it with the husk (brown outer covering) for more fibre.
Low-glycemic index: Chickpeas are a healthy snack options for diabetics as they have a low glycemic index. It also helps in releasing glucose slowly in the blood and helps in maintaining your blood glucose level. Also read about 8 healthy foods that are actually bad for diabetics.
Low in calories: A fistful of roasted chickpeas provides only 46 calories as compared to, say, a potato sandwich (124 calories). And if you have a samosa or even a slice of pizza, then your calorie count shoots up to 250. So the next time you feel hungry, munch a fistful of roasted chana.
According to nutritionist Archana Shah, roasted chana is not just healthy but also provides a whole lot of nutrients like iron, vitamin B-complex and proteins. However, if you are prone to bloating, eat it in limited amount. Also, read about 7 healthy snacks that aid in weight loss.
