Tips on healthy snacking

MANILA, Philippines - Who can resist snacking? In the office when you’re drowning in paper work and you just can’t function anymore or in school when you’re trying to cram for that last-minute requirement, breathing in and out can only get you so far. Sometimes the only way to collect yourself is to step out and grab a snack. Snacking can be sinful, but when done right, it can be just the solution to your stressful problems.

• Choose wisely. When you’re about to grab a snack, always choose wisely. Junk food may be an attractive option but would you really consume that amount of sodium and calories for a few minutes and regret it all throughout the day?

• Mix and match. Healthy snacks shouldn’t be boring. They just need a little creativity to transport you to snack heaven. A good example is to mix your favorite fruits with yogurt. Making this easy for you is Creamy Delight Yogurt, which has a line of plain, flavored, light, and kids’ yogurt, that will make you come back for more.

• Be consistent. You can easily fall off the wagon and start snacking unhealthily just like before. The key is to pick yourself up and develop a healthy snacking habit that will give you a better result in the long run. Your cheat day may come once a week or once a month, but your consistency in snacking healthy should still be the priority if you want to stay healthy and brimming with energy to get you through your day.
