Stress Eating - You may be wondering how come that whenever you are overcome.

You may be wondering how come that whenever you are overcome with incredible stress, you want to reach for something to shove into your mouth and engage in stress eating? Of course the best time to eat is only when you are hungry, but none of us are perfect. You`ve probably noticed already that a lot of times when you are stressed, you feel like eating something crunchy. The first thing that comes to your mind is chips ( or chocolate ). However, there is a healthy alternative - raw Vegetables. Carrots or celery can satisfy the need for crunching as well or better than chips, and actually provide nutritional value. A few properly prepared Nuts can also do the trick if craving something crunchy and you will certainly be providing your body with more nutrients by choosing something other than chips as a Snack.
