Beat the Bulge with Snackergy Snacks and Other Stress Relieving Techniques

RSS

One common reason for snacking is an overload of stress. Many people are considered “stress snackers” as the habit is an attempt to soothe the pressures of work, school, family, relationships, finances and other difficulties. No matter what type of stress, it can cause the body’s level of cortisol to rise which ultimately increases appetite.

Reducing stress is an important part of battling the bulge and achieving weight loss goals. These stress-relieving techniques can help you to combat it.

Regular exercise

Daily physical activity is a great way to help cope with stress as it helps increase levels of endorphins, which are often referred to as “happy hormones.”

Meditation or deep-breathing

Practicing meditation or deep-breathing techniques daily is highly effective in decreasing stress levels. It provides a better sense of well-being as well as overall health which can help you feel stronger and better able to resist unhealthy foods.  Research has found that it can even help one to overcome binge eating.

Healthy snacking

When you get the urge to snack, remember that junk food can make matters worse by temporarily spiking blood sugar. One of the best things you can do is to remove foods like chips and candy from your home and office and instead satisfy those sweet or salty cravings with Snackergy snacks.

Snackergy snacks offer a line of tasty, satisfying treats that are also rich in nutrition and an excellent alternative to those vending machine products and most foods found on shelves at the convenience store. With lots of protein, they also help keep you feeling fuller longer than those traditional snacks.

Craving chocolate? Snackergy Chocolatey Protein offers that crunchy, chocolatey taste you want without the guilt. Each one of these fabulous Snackergy snacks delivers 10 grams of protein to help prevent you from overeating when the stress gets to be too much.  Snackergy Zippers are great when you want something salty and come in a variety of flavors like Chipolte BBQ and Sour Cream & Onion.
