snacks

[Guest guest]

Hi:

I think it was (Idol) who recently mentioned the harm of eating

snacks. I can't find his relevant post, I am afraid.

I agree with him that snacks do interfere with the digestion of the

main meals and are one of the most serious mistakes people can do,

thinking it is harmless, however. I once heard a paleo woman say that

she had a lot of snacks during the day (only paleo foods, of course)

to keep her blood sugar low and to appease her hunger, if I remember

correctly. I was surprised at that. There are other methods which

also require eating every two or three hours. Well?

But I think there could be an exception. A fruit snack is a desirable

thing, in my opinion. Fruits usually don't combine well with other

foods, because they usually digest so quickly, so it may be better to

eat them in isolation. Also, the taste of fruit is not particularly

enhanced by the mixture with other foods. So again, better to eat

them alone. And lastly, fruit is good to refresh or cool the body, so

a fruit snack at the hottest or warmest hour of the day can be a good

idea, no?

I wonder what you people have to say about this. Thanks.
