While a few snacks throughout your day can be a great idea, the quality of your selections makes all the difference—and the typical coffee and muffin can do more harm than good.
When your energy is falling, coffee (stimulant) with a sweet treat (sugar) gives you quick and boost, but is not the best fuel. Instead, balanced, simple healthy snacks with plenty of nutrients, mid-morning and mid-afternoon, will keep you energized and satisfied between meals—and that’s a boon to your diet.
