Greetings dear reader if you're perusing this post while slumped over your desk at your day job then it's probably time for a snack to boost the old blood sugar. Of course there's a right way and a wrong way to get your munch on as a recent Forbes article points out.Forbes "Snacking Survival Guide" notes that the junk food in that office snack machine is bad for two reasons. It's crammed full of calories and often trans-fats, but more important while it may give you a temporary lift, you're bound to feel a crash once your blood sugar falls from its peak. Better options include fruits, vegetables and nuts.
The article also includes a 10-item slide show with a suggested item for various types of snackers and the benefits of the treat. The reccomendation for athletes is pomegranate juice because it contains loads of nutrients and antioxidants. For those on the go, the suggestion is protein bars. And for the bachelor it's eggs because of their ease of preparation and high protein content. That reminds me I've been meaning to rewatch Cool Hand Luke.
