The USDA shows a small 1-ounce or 28-gram bag of salted potato chips contains 149 calories, 15 g of carbs, 9.5 g of fat, 1.8 g of protein, and just under 1 g of fiber (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fdc.nal.usda.gov\/fdc-app.html#\/food-details\/170649\/nutrients\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">23<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The small pack has\u00a0 about 1 g of saturated fat and 148 mg of sodium, with almost no nutritional density. Also, the USDA shows that the same-size plain corn-based chips packet contains 151 calories, 16 g of carbs, 9.35 g of fat, 1.73 g of protein, and 1.12 g of fiber (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fdc.nal.usda.gov\/fdc-app.html#\/food-details\/167537\/nutrients\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">20<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In other words, popular <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/keto-tortilla-chips\/\">tortilla<\/a> chips also have similar nutritional values, with 1.21 g of saturated fat, and 144 mg of sodium.

Also, the total sodium daily allowance is 2300 mg.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Women need at least 25 g of fiber daily, while men need 38 g.

Popcorn is the first choice if you\u2019re buying something from a store. Of the myriad of choices, air-popped popcorn is the best snack replacement for regular chips with 30.96 calories and 6.22 g of carbs per cup (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.urmc.rochester.edu\/encyclopedia\/content.aspx?contenttypeid=76&amp;contentid=19034-1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">22<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In comparison, half a cinema serving of popcorn has 295 calories and 29.5 g of carbs (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbmanager.com\/food-detail\/md:edf3e2024c90e194d346eda1b5a1f98c\/popcorn-regular\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). Popcorn is only a healthier alternative when you air-pop it and control the additives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other healthy replacements for chips include mixed nuts, even oil-roasted.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A 1-ounce or 28-gram portion of oil-roasted mixed nuts contains 172 calories, 5.95 g of carbs, 15.3 g of fat, 5.67 g of protein, and 1.42 mg of sodium (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fdc.nal.usda.gov\/fdc-app.html#\/food-details\/170587\/nutrients\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">18<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). The sodium is low, and the fat is primarily monounsaturated and polyunsaturated.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Compare that to an ounce or 28 grams of dry-roasted mixed nuts containing 172 calories, 6.35 g of carbs, 15.2 g of fat (mostly healthier types), 5.53 g of protein, and 1.13 mg of sodium (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fdc.nal.usda.gov\/fdc-app.html#\/food-details\/170585\/nutrients\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">17<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). Please note that both kinds of mixed nuts have no added salt.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, raw veggie slices or sticks would work as a snack replacement with nut butter, including carrots, cucumbers, jicama, or apple slices. For example, a tablespoon of almond butter contains 98 calories, 3 g of carbs, 8.8 g of fat (mostly healthier kinds), 3.36 g of protein, and 1.12 mg of sodium (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fdc.nal.usda.gov\/fdc-app.html#\/food-details\/168588\/nutrients\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">16<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).
