If you often have the desire to snack, this indicates health problems.

Nutritionist Elena Solomatina spoke about this in more detail in an interview with representatives of the publication “ Moscow 24”.

As the specialist noted, in such a case, a person may be eating incorrectly.

For example, if you choose a sandwich with white bread and sweet tea for breakfast, then the satiety will quickly pass. As a result, you will want to have a snack with something sweet.

In addition, the problem can be provoked by a lack of sleep. It's all about the stress hormone, which makes you look for high-energy food to restore balance, cheer up, and also to eat away stress.

Often a person is afraid of the feeling of hunger and thirst. Therefore, it is important to remember about water balance, so as not to overeat.

Thyroid problems also provoke the desire to snack on something unhealthy.

In addition, as Solomatina noted, snacks can be made less harmful. For example, replace sweets with healthy food with a low glycemic index.
