Grab-and-Go Protein Snacks Your Muscles Will Benefit from

Snack Protein

I’m sure we are all aware of the fact that protein is one immensely important nutrient every human being needs in order to lead a healthy life. Protein helps the body repair any internal or external damage, supports the immune system, and contributes to the overall health of a person. However, athletes, bodybuilders, and individuals who exercise on a regular basis need this nutrient much more than those who aren’t physically active. This is so because when people exercise they effectively tear and break muscle fibers apart. In order to be able to repair this damage, their bodies need protein. That’s precisely why the sight of people at the gym snacking on protein bars, protein cookies, and other high-protein foods after they’ve finished their workout session is a common one.

When it comes to protein-packed snacks, I bet we all know that homemade ones are the healthiest option. However, preparing food ahead of time is a task that requires time, which is why so many people choose to buy their way out of satisfying their cravings by opting for delicious store-bought protein snacks. So, if you too are too busy to prep a nice snack protein for when you hit the gym, you should definitely look for a healthy and yummy ready-made snack protein that will keep you full and help you get the most out of your workout. Don’t worry – most store-bought protein snacks come in a variety of flavors and types, which means that eating protein balls, cookies, and bars from a vending machine can be quite fun.

In case you didn’t know, many physical and online shops offer their customers the possibility to purchase protein snacks in bulk, which is how you can save both money and time.

If you believe that preparing protein snacks is an activity you can easily squeeze into your daily schedule, you might want to give the following two tasty, healthy, and portable protein-packed snacks a chance.

  1. Dark Chocolate Crunchy Coconut Cashew Sesame Bars. This is a gluten-free, vegan, and of course high-protein snack. One of these bars has 9.5 grams of protein, which is more than what a hard-boiled chicken egg contains (one large hard-boiled egg has about 6 grams of protein).
  2. Hummus Dippers. This super-easy protein-packed snack may seem silly to some of you, but trust me – you will love it. All you have to do is put a few dollops of your favorite hummus in a jar, add several vegetable sticks vertically in the hummus (carrots and celery are perfect for dipping), close the jar, and you are ready to go. 1/3 cup hummus with ½ cup mixed vegetable slices contains around 6.7 grams of protein.
