After quitting smoking, appetite may appear more quickly or be confused with habit. A sensible snack then helps to really nourish the body instead of just serving impulses.

Saturation calms the impulse better than any prohibitive rule.

What makes a good snack

A good snack substitute does more than just “eat something”:

- really fills you up - has something to chew on - has a clear conclusion

This reduces the feeling of having to keep searching.

This is how you find suitable alternatives

Try different types of snacks and see what really makes you happy:

Carrots, cucumber or peppers for something crunchy, yogurt, quark or nuts for more satiety and fruit for a fresh, light option.

This is how you use snacks consciously

Take small portions and eat consciously, without distraction. Then put the pack away so that the snack has a clear end.
