Here’s a bit more about meals and snacks:

Generally speaking, it’s best to rely daily on 3 larger, filling, well-balanced meals, complete with well-sourced proteins, fats and carbohydrates and rich in fibre. This allows the body to digest and release a steady supply of energy in between the meals and gives the digestive system a rest.  

However, when we rush around and aren’t able to sit down for a meal with enough time to enjoy and eat mindfully, it’s good to know which snacks and food combinations keep your energy-levels stable and keep you feeling full.

Tip: Avoid eating carbohydrates on their own, like fruit, biscuits or crackers. These will create a rapid spike in your blood sugar levels, which is then followed by a drop, leading to hunger – this is when we tend to reach for junk food and/or feel tired.  

Remember to always stay hydrated by drinking water, and always avoid sugary drinks!
