Being a busy Mom of 2 young kids, I am usually on the go a lot - whether it\u2019s outside at the park or even just running after them in my backyard. When I'm hungry, finding a quick and healthy snack can be challenging.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As you know, grocery store aisles are filled with enticing packaging and lots of unhealthy choices. Knowing what to look for when reading nutrition labels<\/a> can help determine the best options. Recently, I took a trip to my local grocery store in search of a healthy, nutritious and quick snack. I found this - Country Archer Rosemary Turkey Jerky. <\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s a good \u201cbang for your buck\u201d snack with only 70 calories, 9 grams of protein, and 0 grams of carbohydrates. It does have 410 mg of sodium so if you need to watch your sodium intake due to high blood pressure or cardiovascular disease, I wouldn\u2019t recommend these. But otherwise, these make great snacks for any pre or post bariatric surgery patient, medical weight loss patient and a busy mom on the go.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s look at the nutritional information:<\/span><\/p>\n

Calories: 70 calories<\/span><\/p>\n

Fat: 4 grams<\/span><\/p>\n

Sodium: 410 mg<\/span><\/p>\n

Total Carbohydrates: 0 grams<\/span><\/p>\n

Fiber: 0 grams<\/span><\/p>\n

Sugar: 0 grams<\/span><\/p>\n

Protein: 9 grams<\/span><\/p>\n
