    + or - for my trail mix

    consists of Almonds, raisins, yogurt raisins, peanuts...

    3 tablespoons = 16g carbs , 4 g protien , 39mg sodium , 7g fat , 64 total cals from fat, fiber 2g, sugars 7g , satur fat 2g, 148 total cal...

    I'm thinking what are the pro's and con's of this trail mix snack. Could I utilize it Pre-Workout or PWO or snacks during the day. I understand that the mix is not an ideal snack, but it's convienant and fills me up (with 32oz h20)

    Sometimes I will sit at my desk and have three seperate servings at different increments to keep me full before lunch .

    All depends on your current goals. If you are cutting, no, maintenance maybe yes, and bulking of course.

    Goals right now are bulking. Therefor, I am going to assume that it is okay to frequently reach for a handful of this trailmix. I understand it does not have much protien or cals, but the almonds-peanuts-raisins must have some nutritional benift ???
