Smart Snacking

Have you ever had a hunger pain in-between meals? This is a very natural response your body produces to let you know it’s hungry! You might be thinking, “I just ate 1 hour ago”, or “I don’t have time right now”, or even “I don’t like snacking”. There are so many things that go through the mind in order to mitigate this response. Ask yourself this though, what if I had a snack and gave into this feeling of hunger? What would happen? Also, what would happen if you didn’t?
