However, there are alternative ways to create healthy snacking habits. Do you want to promote productivity and corporate wellness at your company’s workplace? If so, our break room solutions can help you do just that.

A healthy and happy workplace starts with a high-quality vending service. Whether you opt for a Scottsdale micro-market or a snack vending machine, the food you choose to provide employees makes a difference. When healthy vending options are available at the office, employees can make positive lifestyle choices daily. And they’re going to love you for it!

So, how can you promote healthy snacking at work? Keep reading to find out our best tips for healthy snacking in your Scottsdale break room.

Provide Healthy Snacking Options

The best way to promote healthy snacking at work is to keep healthy options in your Scottsdale snack vending machine. While salty, sugary, and processed foods are okay in moderation, it can be better to stick to more natural, whole-food options. Therefore, request new, healthy snacks in your vending machine, pantry service, or micro-market. When employees see them clearly available, it’s easier for them to make that positive choice. As a result, employees will feel more energized and be more productive. It’s a win-win!

When and How Often to Eat

Snacking is all about finding the balance between hunger and mindless eating. Are you actually hungry or just need a distraction? It can sometimes be hard to tell the difference. But what you can control is when and how often you grab a snack.

The amount of snacks you should eat throughout the day depends on your activity level. If you’re a very active person, you may want two to three snacks between meals per day. If you exercise less frequently, just one snack per day should suffice. It’s best to have a snack when hunger strikes about halfway between two meals. Grab a snack from your micro-market to help you stay full until your next meal.

What to Eat

Now that you know the basics of healthy snacking, what are you supposed to actually snack on? The key to healthy snacking is choosing food that’s high in protein, low in sugar, and low in processed ingredients. A few great snack options to look for in your Scottsdale break room include:

  • Nuts: These are high in protein and healthy fats!
  • String Cheese: This is a tasty and protein-packed snack!
  • Fruit: Fresh whole foods are always best, and the all-natural sugar kick will give you a boost of energy.
  • Yogurt: Mix a bowl of yogurt with fresh berries for breakfast or a healthy snack.
  • Oats: These are an excellent way to stay full until your next meal.
  • Protein bars: Grab a protein bar whenever you need to curb your cravings.
