Snacking on bananas, peaches, carrots or red and green peppers can help you meet your daily recommendations of fruits and vegetables. You need two to four servings a day.

Snacks such as low-fat yogurt or a slice of cheese on a cracker can help you meet your daily calcium requirement. You need two to three servings per day.

Healthy snacking along with regular physical exercise may also help you maintain overall fitness. So with a little thought and preparation when those snack attacks hit you'll be ready for them.
