[Health aspects of sweets and other snack foods].
Dental and nutritional guidelines are discussed in relation to snacks. Sweets ought to be consumed no more than 2-3 times a day because of their cariogenic effect. Also, hearty snacks should be eaten in limited amounts only because of their high fat and salt content. Some examples of products which have a more favourable nutrient composition and a better score on dental factors than the usual sweets and snacks, are described.
