Study Says Snacking Can Be Healthy

Cutting down on snacks is one of the keys to weight loss, right?  Well, a new study found that snacking might be better for your health than we realized. London-based researcher Sarah Berry says a 2023 study found "no difference in health outcomes" based on the number of snacking sessions in a day. Instead, it was the quality and timing of the snack that made a difference.  Nutritious snacks like nuts or fruit were beneficial, while empty calories like cookies or chips - especially after 9pm - led to worse health outcomes. In short, Berry says snacking is fine "as long as you’re grazing on healthy food and not grazing late at night." Source: Plant Based News
