[Diabetes-Talk] snacks and beverages

[Verlyn Baldwin]

Hi Terry,

As one person mentioned, a half small banana is a great item to add to other
foods. A half banana always seems to help fill me up to a point that I'm not
hungry again for a couple or more hours. Especially when adding it to a
protein source such as the mentioned milk alternatives like soy or  flax
that have more protein. Also adding the banana to the applesauce or yogurt
might help curb hunger.

A low calorie snack might include spreading humice on cucumber or bell
pepper slices. The fiber will also assist in that feeling of fullness.

I'm kind of weird with the flavors I enjoy but a healthy cheap drink I enjoy
is adding one to two tablespoons of organic apple cider vinegar and one dash
of stevia to two cups of water.

You are to be commended in your efforts and successes!
