The Best Snacks To Eat At Work

For years, nutrition experts have been telling us that snacking between meals is actually a good thing because it keeps our metabolism fired up. But, snacking on empty calories and junk food can be a big problem. How can you avoid this?

Here are some guidelines from

Yahoo Health about the sorts of foods you should, and shouldn't, be snacking on:

• Instead of sugary fruit-on-the-bottom yogurt, try plain Greek yogurt.
• If you're looking for finger food, put down the M&Ms and pick up some almonds.
• When dipping, stay away from creamy ranch dip and enjoy some hummus.
• Soda is bad. Chocolate milk is good.
• If you're in the mood for pretzels, look for spelt pretzels. They're healthier and have half the calories.
