Corn
What is this food?
Corn chips (natural flavor). This is a crunchy snack made from corn, usually fried and seasoned.
Why it matters to health
Corn chips can be a quick source of energy (carbohydrates) for your day, but this type is also high in fat and sodium. In 100 g, it has 29.1 g total fat with 15.3 g saturated fat, and 514 mg sodium. Too much saturated fat and sodium can make it harder to keep heart health and blood pressure in a good range. On the plus side, it has 4 g fiber, which helps with fullness, and low sugar (0.3 g). Since it’s a snack, the key is how often you eat it and how much you portion.
Healthier tips
- Keep it as a snack, not a meal replacement—aim for 1 small serving (about a handful) between your 3 full meals and 1–2 snacks.
- Balance it with fiber and protein: pair with plain yogurt, boiled eggs, or fresh fruit instead of eating chips alone.
- Choose options with lower sodium when available, and avoid “always” snacking straight from the pack—portion first.
- For a healthier swap, try roasted corn or air-popped popcorn (less oil) when you want crunch.
