Which snack is more appropriate for a person with high blood lipids?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Fruit and a small amount of unsalted nuts
Fruit supplies fibre, water and micronutrients, while a small portion of unsalted nuts provides unsaturated fats and some protein. Together they are generally preferable to fried foods, sugary drinks, trans-fat products and cream-rich desserts for a person managing high blood lipids. Portion size still matters because nuts are energy-dense, and individual medical advice may be needed.
