SNACKING!

 
Smart snacking choices give you the energy you need during the day, help satisfy your appetite, and help you reach your weight-loss goal. Snacking keeps blood sugar levels stable thereby preventing excessive hunger and overeating at mealtime. 
 
  • Snacking should be a planned part of your day's overall intake. 
  • Snacking may help to increase your metabolic rate when combined with smaller meals (eating speeds up your metabolism by up to 40% above your resting metabolism)! 
  • Snacking can be a source of health-promoting nutrients, such as fiber... so choose wisely! 
  • Snacking does not spoil your appetite if you plan a combination of nutritious snacks and healthy meals. 
  • Remember to brush your teeth after snacking for good dental health!
