   
Diet Tip | PROTEIN BOOST YOUR SNACKS
Snacking on sugary treats in between meals may satisfy the taste buds in the short term, but they ultimately cause our blood glucose levels to spike rapidly, causing an unsettling crash that leads us to crave even more food.
Yet by replacing these high sugar snacks with nibbles that are low in carbohydrates and high in protein, blood glucose levels will raise steadily and gradually, which in turn increases energy and therefore keeps you feeling fuller for longer.
For heart-healthy selections, try eating fresh peaches topped with cottage cheese – which is a protein-rich dairy product. Avocado dips, tuna or cooked eggs are also great snacks for increasing your energy levels. Lean slices of deli meat also contain enough protein to quell lingering hunger pangs.
