Truth or Fiction? Snacking is bad for you

try not to be like Homer

We all love a nibble. Whether we are on holiday visiting a beach, out shopping in town, enjoying  a film at the cinema, it can be comforting to treat ourselves. And remember, nobody gets fat by eating a doughnut, or loses weight by eating an apple. Treats are good for mental health too.

Eating during the day is actually good for you - but it is the choices we make on a regular basis that is critical.  Low sugar, high protein snacks can help to maintain your blood-sugar levels, keeping you feeling full and preventing your body from storing excess fat. Snacks full of sugar though can have a detrimental effect over time.

So if you are going to snack, try and plan in advance. Take snacks with you - like fruit, nuts, etc.
