As we age most of us start getting advice from our doctors to aim for healthier foods to keep weight and cholesterol in check and to control our sugar intake. Satisfying a snack urge with a few slices of fruit, dark chocolate, and almonds can be a healthier alternative, along with decaffeinated coffee (for those of us who experience blood pressure spikes or heart rhythm problems from caffeine). This snack looks and feels like a diet cheat, but isn’t.
