Act By Laurie Burns Exercise Physiologist: To snack or not to snack, that is the question. Does snacking make you fat? No, snacks are not inherently bad for us. Approximately 50 per cent of all fresh fruit consumed is eaten as a snack. The unfortunate truth, though, is that snack- ers also generally consume more fat, sodium and su; than those who don’t snack all the time. “We believe people should snack for the right says. Bonnie Spring, M.D., professor of psychology at Chicago Medical School. One. good reason is that it has been a long time since your last meal. You may be light- headed or truly hungry. Snacking at this time cor- rects performance dips. (Think of your snack as fuel for your body just like a car, when the tank gets low, you fill it up.) Another group of snackers primarily snack in the date afternoon or evening and may have a biological reason. Those showing this pattern are mnay be trying to correct a functional defi- ciency in the brain chemi- cal, serotonin. (Note: This is not an excuse for your eat- ing habits, consult your physician.) Activity Line Snack Attack Line mnacks are a good way to avoid overeating at meal times. By snacking between meals that are low in fat and sugar, you will keep your energy level boosted, your metabolism working effi- ciently and-you will not be starving when it is time to eat your,next meal, causing yourself to over indulge. Overweight people nib- ble; they tend not to eat real foods, like vegetables or fruit.

Overall, coach Fred Kotani credited the boys with play- ing a well- rounded game and felt the rough edges will be smoothed out with time. “Offensively they showed potential,” said Kotani. “Jeff Wilson threw well and the receivers will get better with time. Both Paul Ruttimann ott Teeter ran ,the ball well.” The Rebels had a couple of drives where they couldn’t lose opener punch the ball across the goa- line but Kotani doesn’ t seem overly ee saying that practice will iron it out. Kotani credited the defense with a very strong effort; including the play of linebacker Paul Sandifier and defensive back Jaimie Bottomley .and several juniors he feels will develop.
