Dried fruits are great alternatives when considering snacking on something sweet, but not all fruits are created equal. When you are looking for a snack, you need to balance low calorie with the % of calories from sugar and the amount of fiber.
I’ve built the following tips to help you choose, which fruits are right for you.
Weight Loss Tip #1: Low Calorie Fruits, with good sugar percentages and fiber content (BEST)
- Dried Prunes (6 pieces): Calories 121, 63% calories from sugar, Fiber 4g
- Dried Figs (3 pieces): Calories 141, 77% of calories from sugar, Fiber 6g
Weight Loss Tip #2: Low Calorie Fruits, higher sugar percentages, and so-so fiber(GOOD)
- Cranberries (1/3 cup): Calories 130, 80% calories from sugar, Fiber 3g
- Dried Apricots (6 pieces): Calories 48, 95% calories from sugar, Fiber 2g
- Raisins (small box): Calories 129, 80% calories from sugar, Fiber 2g
Weight Lost Tip #3: Moderate Calorie, higher sugar content, and OK Fiber (FINE)
- Mango (4 pieces): Calories 160, 80% calories from sugar, Fiber 2g
- Dates (3 pieces): Calories 144, 97% calories from sugar, Fiber 4g
Weight Loss Tip #4: Fruit that’s more like candy
- Dried Pineapple (1/2 cup): Calories 212, 50% calories from sugar, Fiber 1.5g
- Yogurt Raisins (25 pieces): Calories 219, 40% calories from sugar, 10g Fat, Fiber 1g
