Dieticians worldwide recommend three solid meals per day, as well as a mid-morning and mid-afternoon snack. This helps to control blood sugar levels, which, in turn, prevents cravings for fatty and/or sugary foods. But eating too much at snacktime, even wholesome foods, is not healthy.

Take action:
Don't snack directly from a package – unintentionally, you may end up eating the entire contents; portion out one handful of a snack onto a plate or napkin; choice of food is also important – fruits and vegetables make excellent snacks, especially since their proportion of nutrition to kilojoules is usually good; and order small servings when you eat out.
