Snacking Can Be Good

When you first learn that you have diabetes you can't help thinking about how much your eating habits will have to change. Thankfully, you can eat healthfully and still enjoy snacks. Some people with diabetes are told to avoid heavy meals and to spread their eating throughout the day, so you may actually be encouraged to snack! The key to success is to monitor what you eat over an entire day and stay within your individualized nutritional goals.

Healthy Snacks
Many traditional snacks fall under the heading of healthy snacks. A piece of fresh fruit, carrot and celery sticks, pretzels, and low-fat yogurt are just a few examples of low fat snacks. Other foods can become healthy snacks with only a few modifications. A few squirts of butter-flavored spray and a sprinkle of garlic or onion powder on popcorn make a tasty snack that avoids high concentrations of fat and sodium. Using low or fat free dressings to dip bite size vegetables instead of sour cream based dips reduces the fat content considerably.
