A common misconception is that snacking is bad for weight management. The truth is that snacking can help you maintain a healthy weight and help in weight loss. Eating smaller meals and snacks every three hours or so can help maintain more stable blood sugar levels throughout the day. It can help you avoid extreme hunger so that you do not overeat at lunch or dinner.
“Healthy snacks should combine protein, fibre, and heart-healthy fats and not too much sugar or salt. These types of snacks are sure to fill you up and keep you satisfied until your next meal,” says Chef Hector Olvera of Honey & Dough Restaurant.
