Late night eating is not a good idea, however if you need to munch something then choose the right food in limited portions.

1.   A fistful of dry fruits and nuts: Protein fibre, antioxidants, healthy fats.

2.   Roasted makhana or foxnuts: low calorie dense, high in antioxidants.

3.   Golden milk: Milk with turmeric. Calcium, proteins, anti-inflammatory and sleep enhancing.

4.   Peanut butter with Apple: 1 table spoon with an apple. Fibre, proteins, healthy fats, controls hunger.

5.   Egg: 1 is enough. Protein, iron, satisfies hunger.

6.   Oats or Daliya: a small bowl. Fibre, minerals and satisfies hunger.
