Is see that trail mix is high in calories, yet I am dieting?
trail mix is actually a pretty good choice as long as you're not eating like 5 cups of it a day... measure out a certain amount into a cup or bowl. trail mix is fairly high i calories, however, it's also very filling.... the dried fruit is high is fiber and the nuts have lots of bulk and "good" fats and oils. also you really have to chew it which gives your body the impression you're eating something hearty and filling.
Is trail mix an ok diet food?
Trail mix is a better sback food than most mainly because of the fiber, but think about what trail mix is meant for....providing calories while doing long walks. In other words, trail mix does have calories. But as long as you control the a amount you eat, it is a good snack. Don't forget that losing weight is really a matter of burning more calories than you consume. Don't forget to exercise (walking off that trail mix would be an excellant choice).
