Walmart is one of those massive stores that seem to sell just about everything, and people sometimes forget what a great place it is to buy foods and products that will support your weight loss at a decent price.

A certified health coach and content creator, Hunter Stoler, shared an Instagram reel detailing numerous products you can find to support your health and weight loss journey. He considers them to be “hidden gems,” ranging from decadent chocolate-flavored granola to yummy bars and snacks you can take on the go. Not only are these products tasty, but they also come at a great price, and you may want to go ahead and buy them in bulk. Read more about them below.

Double Chocolate Cookie Granola

Granola can sometimes be taboo in the health and wellness community, as certain store-bought brands can be loaded with added sugars and inflammatory ingredients. However, Hunter says you can still eat it, but you want to make sure you're buying a good brand.

He selected the Purely Elizabeth Double Chocolate Cookie Granola from Walmart.

"Yes, you can eat granola and still lose weight," says Hunter. "This one uses all-real ingredients, no seed oils, it has some fiber in it, and it's so delicious and satisfying."

Beef Sticks

Protein is vital to ensuring a successful weight loss journey as it keeps you feeling full and supports muscle growth. Hunter suggests the Chomps Beef Sticks if you're looking for a quick protein source from Walmart.

These beef sticks are rising in popularity and contain an impressive 10 grams of protein per serving at only 100 calories. You can add them to a snack box or simply grab one from your pantry when you're in a rush.

Raspberry Lime Sparkling Water

One of today's most popular seltzer brands is Spindrift, and you can find them at Walmart.

"Don't underestimate sparkling water," says Hunter. "This is made with real fruit, no natural flavors, only fruit, water, and some non-GMO citric acid."

If you can't get through the day without cracking open a soda, you should definitely swap it for one of these, as they're still sweet and refreshing but won't spike your blood sugar or make you crash.

Mini Fruit Bars

If you're an adult who lowkey loves a child-sized snack, you should check out the That's It Mini Fruit Bars recommended by Hunter, specifically the Apples + Strawberries and Apples + Mangoes flavors.

He suggests this snack as they're already "portioned" and ready to go, so you can easily practice portion control while getting in some tasty, naturally sweet fruits.

Almond Flour Bars

Another great snack Hunter found at Walmart is from the popular health-food brand Simple Mills. Hunter selected their Soft-Baked Almond Flour Bars and found two deliciously sweet flavors at Walmart: Dark Chocolate Almond and Nutty Banana Bread.

"They're portioned and use great ingredients," adds Hunter. T

hese would be an excellent choice for those who love ending their night with a dessert of some kind, especially a brownie or slice of loaf cake. They can be a good replacement that won't throw you off track.
