Since eating biscuits can spike your blood sugar, its not good for diabetics either. Biscuits are also loaded with fat used in the cooking process, so its adds up the calories and fat.

If you want a healthy snack, try these healthy smoothies- Choco PB Smoothie and Strawberry Smoothie, or this delicious dessert. You can even eat Almonds- loaded with protein, antioxidants, vitamins and healthy fats.

So, the next time someone offers biscuits as a weight loss food, feel free to enlighten them about the unhealthy side of bisuits :)

      I think biscuits are fatal for more reason than one. Ofcourse they are loaded with unhealthy calories but also push you to over indulge. I feel the manufacturers add some kind so addictive substance to themas once you start eating biscuits you cant stop at one!
