Curd, banana, badam, walnut, peanut butter (1 piece)

Reduce the banana portion to half a small, firm banana and avoid very ripe bananas.

Use plain, unsweetened curd and avoid flavored or sweetened varieties.

Keep nuts and peanut butter measured: a small handful of almonds and walnuts, plus 1–2 teaspoons of unsweetened peanut butter.

Eat the curd, nuts, and peanut butter first, then have the banana last rather than blending everything together.

Avoid adding honey, sugar, dates, granola, or sweetened milk to this combination.

Have this snack after a meal or alongside a protein-rich food such as eggs or paneer, rather than on an empty stomach.
