Did you know some candy is actually GOOD for you? It’s true!
If you’re shopping for Halloween candy this week – pick the healthy kind. Even if candy isn’t exactly health food, some varieties are better for you than others. Check for these ingredients:
• Dark chocolate has heart-healthy flavonoids.
• Peanuts are packed with protein and antioxidants.
• Coconut has that good fat that is burned for energy rather than stored. It can even help boost your immune system.
So what about candy corn? Ok, it’s not exactly full of nutrients and vitamins, but studies show just looking at, smelling or eating those happy little Halloween treats give our psyches a boost – triggering happy childhood memories.
