SNACKING IS HEALTHY

You’ve heard it all before. Most health and fitness experts agree that eating five to six small meals per day will not only rev up your metabolism but will also help you to maintain your healthy weight while reducing unwanted fat weight. Unfortunately, snacking has gotten a bad rap, thanks to our tendency to choose empty-calorie snack foods like candy bars, chips and soda to ease between-meal cravings. However, when your stomach starts growling hours before your next meal, a healthy snack is actually a great idea to stave off hunger and keep energy levels high.
