How to Beat a Snack Attack
by bznuts
Snack attacks can hit at any time, but the best way to stop them is to eat more of what your body really craves: protein. The timing of your meals can make a big difference when it comes to dealing with cravings. Snacking on high-protein foods can actually help keep your blood sugar level; dips in blood sugar are often what cause cravings. It's important to know which kinds of foods are going to give you the energy you need to function well throughout your day and to resist the urge to snack on something gooey or sweet. Foods high in protein come from many sources: fish, meat, plants (like soy, beans, and lentils), and dairy products. Some energy bars are also high in protein, as are some protein drink mixes and beverages.

Snacking doesn't necessarily have to be a bad habit, it can become a good one, too.
