Dr. Rick's Health Tip of the Month

Sensible Snacking

By Rick Allen, DC

Choose your snacks wisely. Avoid processed foods loaded with sugar that can lead to adult onset diabetes and hydrogenated fats that clog your arteries, contributing to strokes and heart attacks. Instead, fill up with nutritious snacks ñ fruits and vegetables are best. They contain lots of vitamins, minerals, fiber, and water to help you stay healthy.
