Snacks

Fruits and vegetables are high calorie foods.

The water and fiber/roughage in fruit is good for you and helps in the elimination of body waste.

If you buy juice it is important to buy real fruit juice, not fruit flavored.

Nutrient Dense Snacks =

Fruits and vegetables are good sources of fat and protein.

More nutrients are retained when fruits are used with their skins.

If you are feeling hungry, drinking a glass of water can help fill that hunger.

More Processing =

You should try to eat the same snacks every day

Snacking can be an important part of overall food intake, especially for children and adolescents who are growing fast, and for people who cannot eat a lot at one time.
