Snacking healthier is easier said than done. After all, how do you know what’s actually good for you? NatureBox believes in the 80/20 rule – 80 percent of the time, we eat totally clean with lots of vegetables, fresh fruit and lean protein. Twenty percent of the time, we let ourselves indulge; maybe it’s a sweet treat for dessert or at a birthday party.

In this 80/20 lifestyle there’s lots of room for both healthy and indulgent snack options. But whether we’re avoiding anything and everything processed, or allowing ourselves to enjoy a decadent goodie, one thing is for sure: We all should avoid certain ingredients.

Here are the five food ingredients to avoid at all costs and why:

1. High fructose corn syrup.

2. Trans fats or partially hydrogenated oils.

3. Artificial flavors.

4. Artificial sweeteners.

5. Artificial colors.

NatureBox snacks are free from all of those ingredients and are minimally processed, if at all. They offer more than 100 unique items to excite every palate, every dietary consideration. From healthy classics like dried fruit and granola, to healthful takes on cookies, flax-infused crackers and tons of different of spiced nut mixes, the options range from snacks you know to snacks you’ll be happy to meet. Whether or not you observe the 80/20 rule, you’ll be able to enjoy these snacks 100 percent of the time.
