"Dietitian-approved snacks: Fueling the DASH diet with perfection"

The DASH diet, which has been named healthier than the Mediterranean diet, focuses on low salt and processed foods while emphasizing whole foods, fruits, and vegetables. Dietitian Danielle Smith recommends four snacks for the DASH diet: wild blueberry peanut butter dip with fruit and veg, beet hummus with dippable veg or crackers, protein bars (with minimal ingredients), and Greek yogurt with fruit and nuts. These snacks provide fiber, healthy fats, protein, and essential nutrients, making them suitable for maintaining heart health and overall well-being.
