Hi,
I know that when you're a student, you don't always have time to sit at the caf and take your time to eat. You often are running to class because you didn't wake up or you just wanna hava a snack in your room. This is normal and you are allowed to snack as long as it's not all day long. However, you should still be careful about what snacks you eat, especially if you're gonna eat it regularly. Below are some healthy snacks ideas:
-oatmeal: you can add slices of apple, banana or any fruit you like or have in your room - you can also put some honey to make it sweet or spices like cinnamon. Any dry fruits like raisins can be added but these are usually very concentrated with sugar so you shouldn't put too much.
-whole grain granola bar (with less than 150 calories and no added sugar)
-all types of cereals that are contain a lot of fiber (which help with digesting): all-bran, granola, mueslix, special K etc.
-bagels (multigrain, oatmeal, or plain): just don't cover the whole thing with cream cheese and you'll be fine
-crackers: plain
-melba toast
-yoghourt
-and of course FRUITS!! this should be your first choice as often as possible. If you're very hungry, bananas can do a pretty good job at filling you up and apples are cheap and easy to get/eat.
Now, here's a list of snacks that are largely available in a student environment but are not healthy:
-chips
-cookies
-doughnuts
-pastries
-brownies
-sweet soft drinks: prefer fresh fruit juices if you really wanna drink something sweet.
