What to pack on the road: ranking of the best nutritious snacks for 2024

Summer is a traditional travel time. Both on vacation and on hot weekends, everyone wants to go out into the fresh air, to change the environment. Therefore, many go to nature so as not to spend time within four walls.

The long road will seem endless if you do not eat in time. When thoughts are not distracted by hunger, the journey is much easier. The best solution for eating on the road is nutritious snacks that fill the body with energy quickly and for a long time.

The main requirements for food on the road

It is better not to transport perishable products (dairy products, fish) where it is impossible to provide a suitable temperature for their storage.

The packaging and the food itself must retain their original shape, even if they are influenced by external factors. In addition, you should pay attention to weight and volume, so as not to spend most of your luggage on food.

The food should be ready to eat right away. The exception is instant soups and cereals.
The best qualities of snack foods are naturalness, low calorie content and low fat content.
Whatever the original taste of travelers, there are several categories among them that meet all the requirements.

Nutrition experts have provided several recommendations for a healthy travel snack:

1. It is better to give preference to natural flavors. It may be confusing for some to think of a natural-identical flavor additive. In fact, these additives are of artificial origin.
2. The presence of monosodium glutamate or E621 in the composition should be avoided. With the help of this additive, the taste of the food is enhanced, so that a person begins to feel hunger again in a short time. Another reason to avoid harmful impurities is the theory that monosodium glutamate can reduce brain activity. It was successfully proved by Alexey Dushka.
3. Those who love chips and do not want to get fat should choose a product made from potato slices. Chips made from mashed potatoes contain too much starch.
4. Another dangerous additive in chips is called acrylamide. American scientists have found that it can provoke the development of cancer in rats.It hasn't been proven to be harmful to humans, but it's best to reduce your intake. Green vegetables can neutralize its effect. Therefore, for those who cannot refuse chips, it is better to combine them with cabbage and green vegetables.

Some people think that snacks can last for a long time. However, this is an illusion, and even if the package is airtight, the product deteriorates. Therefore, you should buy chips that are made no more than a month ago.
