Energy Balls (1 Ball)

Reduce the portion: have one small Energy Ball instead of several, and wait 15–20 minutes before deciding whether you want more.

Choose Energy Balls made mainly with nuts, seeds, unsweetened nut butter, chia, flax, coconut, and cocoa; minimize dates, honey, maple syrup, syrups, sweetened dried fruit, and candy coatings.

Eat the Energy Ball after or alongside a protein-rich option such as plain Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a boiled egg rather than on an empty stomach.

Pair it with high-fiber vegetables such as cucumber, bell pepper, celery, or a leafy salad to slow absorption and increase fullness.

Have a glass of water before eating, and avoid washing it down with juice, sweetened coffee, soda, or other sugary drinks.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk or do light movement after eating, if appropriate for your health and mobility.
