Healthy Diet for January 12 – Hunger Strikes? Snack Smart ⋆ Healthy Diet ⋆ Lifestyle

Will you (or did you) enjoy a snack today? Fine, if you snack smart. Snack for the health of it.

  • Snack when you’re really hungry, not just when you’re bored or stressed.
  • Snack with your whole day’s food intake in mind, not just as an add-on. Smaller meal portions allow room for snacks.
  • Choose smart, handy snacks. Tuck whole fruit or a bag of pretzels in a briefcase or backpack to enjoy when real hunger strikes.
  • Take a sensible portion from the package. Then put the rest away to put the brakes on mindless nibbling.
  • Read the food label first. Low-fat snacks may not be low in calories.
  • Snack smart by not eating mindlessly in front of the TV.

Save money and eat smart by packing a handy, healthful snack before leaving home.

  • Your signature snack mix: any combination of pretzels, nuts, whole-grain cereal, dried fruits
  • Whole fruit: apple, banana, tangerine
  • Single-serve foods: canned fruit, applesauce or pudding cup
