Bowl of low-fat yoghurt in the afternoon makes dieting easier
Sometime in the afternoon, about three hours after your lunch and before it's time for supper you probably feel peckish. If you go for a protein-rich snack, like a bowl of low-fat yoghurt, then, without even trying, you'll eat 100 kcal less in the evening than you would if you treat yourself to traditional snacks that are loaded with carbs and fat. Nutritionists at the University of Missouri published this slimming tip in Nutrition Journal.
