Snacking: Friend or Foe?
Snacking has become a habit for most people, especially those who work long hours or have busy schedules. It seems like a quick and easy option to tackle hunger pangs, but is it part of a healthy diet? Dr. Ken D. Berry, a Family Physician, tells us why snacking is terrible and the simple tricks to break your snack addiction.
Big Food’s Billion-Dollar Lie
Big-food corporations have capitalized on the snack culture, promoting snacks advertised as “healthy” or “low-calorie.” These processed snack foods are often full of sugar, salt, and unhealthy additives that can cause inflammation, increase the risk of chronic diseases, and lead to weight gain. However, Dr. Berry warns that for us snacking is going to cause problems with our health.
The Dangers of Snacking
Regular snacking disrupts our body’s natural hunger and satiety signals, making us more prone to overeating. This, in turn, leads to increased blood sugar levels, insulin resistance, and weight gain. Frequent snacking also harms our gut health, as it doesn’t allow our digestive system to rest and recover after meals.
Simple Tricks to Break the Habit
Breaking our snacking habit can be challenging but essential for our health. Here are some tricks that Dr. Berry recommends:
1. Drink plenty of water. Often, we confuse thirst with hunger, leading to mindless snacking. Staying hydrated can help reduce the frequency of snacking.
2. Practice mindful eating. When you eat, focus on the experience of eating. Enjoy the flavors, textures, and smells of your meals. This can help you feel more satisfied and reduce the urge to snack.
3. Plan your meals. Plan your meals ahead of time and make sure they are nutrient-dense and filling. This will keep you satiated and reduce cravings for unhealthy snacks.
Keto-Snacks: Friend or Foe?
The ketogenic diet has gained immense popularity recently, and so have keto snacks. These snacks are low-carb, high-fat, and protein-rich, making them an ideal choice for people following a keto diet. But do they help with weight loss?
According to Dr. Berry, keto snacks can benefit people following a low-carb, high-fat diet. These snacks can help maintain ketosis, reduce hunger, and increase satiety. However, opting for whole, nutrient-rich keto-friendly foods like nuts, seeds, and cheese is crucial, as avoiding highly processed keto snacks.
Final Thoughts
Snacking can harm our health and lead to weight gain, chronic diseases, and digestive issues. Dr. Berry recommends breaking the snacking habit by staying hydrated, practicing mindful eating, and planning nutrient-dense meals. If you follow a low-carb diet, keto snacks can be a healthy option, but opting for whole, nutrient-rich foods is vital. Remember, consult your doctor before making any significant changes to your diet.
