Tips for healthy snacking
  • Plan your snacks - keep healthy snacks on hand at work.
     
  • Choose lower fat options for regular snacks such as breakfast cereal (dry or with milk) instead of chips, cereal bars or fruit, nut and grain bars instead of chocolate biscuits, ice-blocks instead of ice-cream and low fat muesli slices instead of cake.
     
  • Look for grain or fruit based snacks which are high in carbohydrate and lower in fat.
     
  • Take yoghurt, milk, sandwiches and salads to work or school in an insulated bag, especially on hot summer days.
     
  • Try different ways of having fruit e.g. frozen on hot days, or whipped into a smoothie with low-fat milk.
