| To many people, a snack is a handful of chips or a few cookies. Unfortunately, snacks like these simply add unwanted calories, sugars, and fats. Nutrition experts look to snacks as a way of fitting in missing food groups and nutrients. Snacks also help to add structure to an eating plan, and this may be especially helpful for people with diabetes and/or those trying to control their weight. The structure of regular meal times and snacks helps some people stick to their eating plans.
For most people – even those with diabetes – snacking is optional. Do take your medications into account. Many diabetes drugs increase the risk of having low blood sugar, so you may feel that you need to snack in order to keep your blood sugar from dipping too low. If so, talk to your healthcare team to see if you can lower your dose or switch to a medication that doesn’t cause low blood sugar. by Jill Weisenberger, MS, RD, CDE | | Sign up for our free nutrition handouts today.
