Dietician Erika Davies discusses healthy after-school snacks and appropriate portion sizes for kids with diabetes.
When kids come home from school, they’re often hungry and want a snack. It’s hard enough finding something to dispel their hunger without completely spoiling their appetite for dinner.

In this video, Erika Davies, MS, RD, LD, an endocrinology dietitian at Children’s National, discusses healthy after-school snacks for kids with diabetes.
