We all get those cravings for something that’s deliciously savoury.
So why not give in to your craving by enjoying some healthy chips?
When you think about chips, the first thing that comes to mind is a potato chip. Potato chips can be oven baked or fried, and depending on what packet you choose, some health concerns go with them.
With a choice between oven baked or fried, the healthier chip options are oven baked, although many individuals prefer the fried option. Reducing the number of harmful oils you consume can help prevent heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and unhealthy weight gain. Turning to alternative healthy chips can help you monitor your health and wellbeing.
But what is a healthy chip?
There are many different types of healthy chips you can choose from. While most chips are made using potatoes, almost all fruits and vegetables can be turned into chips. In Australia, all nutritional information is provided on the product’s packaging and knowing what options are healthy can be as simple as reading this information.
Here are some things you should look for:
- Oven baked over fried
- Simple ingredients
- Healthy oils are used
No umbrella terms (healthy chips won’t use a complicated ingredients list)
Taking your time to read through all the product information before purchasing will help ensure you’re consuming healthy chip options.
