Just wondering what a good late night snack should consist of….I read an article about not eatting nuts and too much sugar so that takes out fat and fruit.. plus it said avoid certain proteins..I’m a little confused. Hmm?

I’ve always been told a veggie/protein/ a little fat. The fat will help you feel full- the protein/veggie has no carbs and of course protein helps build/repair muscle. 1 tbsp of coconut oil before bed is a good idea, so maybe a small piece of chix/Brocolli/1 tsp of oil. I’m sure others may have something a bit more creative. You have it right… sticking with some fat and low carb (read: low energy) as a late night snack is great! The fruit is best earlier in the day when you need the energy.
