Which snack is better for blood-lipid control?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Fruit and a small amount of unsalted nuts
Fruit provides fibre, vitamins and protective compounds, while a small amount of unsalted nuts provides unsaturated fats and some protein. Replacing fried, trans-fat-rich and highly sugary snacks with these choices can support healthier blood lipids when the overall diet is balanced. Portion size still matters because nuts are energy-dense. Hence, A is best.
