Meatless Monday
Everyone loves snacks. Snacks give
your body an energy boost throughout the day, and they can help maintain your
weight because you will be eating less at big meals. Eating less at main meals
and having snacks in between will help your metabolism, and you will process
food faster when you eat.
Choosing fruit, yogurt, granola bars,
vegetables, and whole wheat grains are better choices than pre-made snacks by
cookie and chip companies. The benefits of healthy snacking are that these
snacks provide a lot of nutrients and vitamins that many people need but take
for granted. They are good sources of energy. Also, they provide fiber to help
cleanse the body, again making your bodily systems and functions more
efficient. The benefits of healthy snacking are all around, and great! So look
into snacking for you and your kids. You will never regret it!
