Can’t imag­ine going to the cin­e­ma with­out a huge por­tion of pop­corn, crack­ers and sweet soda?

Every­one loves these del­i­ca­cies, but they can­not be called healthy. What to eat while watch­ing a movie on the big screen?

Wal­nuts

Instead of salt­ed peanuts and crack­ers, take cashews, almonds or wal­nuts with you. Although they are high in calo­ries (about 650 kilo­calo­ries per 100 grams), they are very use­ful. In addi­tion, nuts per­fect­ly sat­is­fy the feel­ing of hunger.

Healthy drink

Ditch car­bon­at­ed drinks in favor of low-fat yogurt, fruit juice or reg­u­lar tea. Such a drink is much health­i­er than sweet soda, which pro­vokes dis­eases of the diges­tive tract and obe­si­ty.

Fruit

Low-calo­rie and afford­able fruits are a life­line for those who mon­i­tor their health. Take a few tan­ger­ines, apples or bananas to the cin­e­ma, and while watch­ing the movie, your body will receive a huge dose of vit­a­mins and essen­tial trace ele­ments.

If you find it dif­fi­cult to resist pop­corn, lim­it your­self to the small­est por­tion. Remem­ber, var­i­ous fillers, for exam­ple, caramel, increase the calo­rie con­tent of this del­i­ca­cy sev­er­al times.
