Office fruit ‘can be part of a healthy diet’

Eating office fruit instead of cakes or biscuits is obviously the best way to stay healthy.

Snacks from the office fruit basket, such as grapes, can still satisfy those with a sweet tooth as they've got a high natural sugar content, which helps stimulate the brain, making you more alert at work.

TV presenter Lorraine Kelly has revealed to the Daily Mail that she tries to eat fruit as a healthy snack.

She tends to eat porridge for breakfast topped with some fruit. Then, throughout the day she likes to snack on fruit and olives.

Explaining why she eats fruit, Lorraine said: "Don’t get me wrong, like many women I’m tempted by cakes and biscuits, but I’m not whippet thin and I do have the tendency to put on weight easily."

She said that earlier this year she trained for the marathon and now views food as "fuel" for her body, which means she tends to try to opt for healthy things.
