Halloween Candy

First EVERYTHING IN MODERATION and ALL FOODS FIT! However, when it comes to treats there are some that may be a better choice than others.
BETTER: Starburst Original Fruit Chews
Starburst, like many ‘fat-free’ products, is loaded with sugar. But, you can enjoy a whole nine pieces for less calories and fat.
9 pieces = 150 calories; 0 fat; 22 g sugar
BETTER: Dum Dum Pops
At 59 calories per serving size, or three lollipops, the Dum Dum is a low-caloric sugary treat you can enjoy for hours.
1 serving size or 3 lollipops = 59 calories; 0 fat; 11 g sugar
BETTER: Tootsie Roll
If you don’t bite it down in the middle, the Tootsie Roll takes a long time to eat, so make it last!
6 Tootsie Rolls (40 g) = 140 calories (30 calories from fat); 3 g total fat; 19 g sugar
BETTER: Brach’s Candy Corn             
Candy corn is a sugar bomb with salt. But you can have a large handful, or 26 pieces, for 150 calories.
26 pieces = 150 calories; 0 fat; 28 g sugar
BETTER: York Snack Size Peppermint Patties
If you need it — chocolate that is — this minty chocolate treat scores better in the fat, sugar and calories category than most other chocolate bars.
1 mini patty = 50 calories; 1g fat; 9g sugar
WORSE: Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
At 105 calories per cup, 50 of them from fat, you get to enjoy the milk chocolate with all the calories, plus calories from fat.
1 cup = 105 calories (40 calories from fat); 6.5 g total fat; 10.5 g sugar
WORSE: Mounds Snack Size
Dark chocolate and coconut — well then Mounds must be healthy! Not so fast. With the first ingredient being corn syrup and with 80 calories, half of them being from fat, even the snack size Mounds is quite the guilty pleasure.
1 bar = 80 calories (40 calories from fat); 4.5 g total fat; 7 g sugar
WORSE: Almond Joy Snack Size
Don’t be fooled by the almonds in the Almond bar. At 80 calories per snack size bar, half of them from fat, the coconut and almonds add mostly calories to your Almond Joy. Unfortunately, the almond isn’t enough to redeem this candy.
1 bar = 80 calories; 40 calories from fat (4.5 g total fat); 8 g sugar
WORSE: Kit Kat Snack Size Bars
Three pieces (42 g) of this crunchy treat will set you back 210 calories, 90 calories from fat, which makes it one of the higher caloric bars and also higher in fat.
3 pieces (42 g) = 210 calories; 90 calories from fat (11 g total fat); 21 g sugar

I have been at Strongside for close to two months. I have never been in a workout environment that feels so supportive and encouraging. I highly recommend Nutriformance for everyone who is looking for a place to belong.

This is the best lifters gym I've ever been to. There is an almost overwhelming amount of equipment on the upper level.

I like the variety of exercises and intensities, but my favorite part is the technology that allows me to hold myself accountable for my effort and performance.

Great local gym. Lots of weights and machines, friendly staff, and not too crowded.

I am so happy I know this place is here now! I booked a massage with Alexis, I had been in need of one desperately from working at home in the wrong chair for the past few months. She was so kind and intuitive and really knew the exact areas to address. I feel like a new person now, one of the best massages I have ever had! I didn't know they offer pilates here as well and the studio is gorgeous. The atmosphere was great and very clean. I will definitely be back soon!

I couldn’t recommend Alexis (massage therapist) enough. She is kind, professional and knowledgeable every time I see her. She makes me feel comfortable and is mindful of aches and spots on my body that might need more or less attention. I feel so relaxed every time I leave and never want the massages to end. She’s great and I highly recommend her!

The reopening protocols that Nutriformance have implemented are identical to those we are currently using in the professional sports world and my confidence is such that I am completely comfortable bringing my 8- year old son in on a weekly basis to continue his training. The awareness of the staff and their sensitivity to our current health situation are of the utmost priority, based on my observations over the last couple of weeks. If you are an athlete looking to gain a competitive edge over your opponents, a young athlete trying to refine your basic athletic qualities or an adult just looking to stay healthy - I would make Nutriformance my first call.
