Many
college students develop deficiencies and poor nutrition because they aren’t
aware of the certain things they need to eat. Do you know what you should be
eating?
This week on one of
my walks back to my dorm I decided to stop by the Granoff Hall Student Health
Center. It came to my attention that I probably haven’t been making the best of
food choices. Lately, I have been mostly only eating pizza and drinking soda.
Since I find myself constantly feeling tired and lethargic I decided to grab a
pamphlet on nutrition to see some changes I could make. It mentioned that a
good diet needs to be composed of a balance between grains/carbs,
fruits/vegetables, meats/proteins, and dairy/fats. This explains why I haven’t
been feeling so well, I’ve been missing some of the most important parts of a
healthy diet. Some tips they had for better nutrition were to drink water
instead of soda and sugary drinks, avoid fatty/fried foods, limit sodium, eat
lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, make sure to get right amount of daily carbs & protein, and plenty
more. I have already switched to drinking water and started to make healthier
food choices. I hope to continue making these beneficial changes to my diet. If
you’re concerned with making the right nutrition choices, avoiding the freshman
15, or how to be healthier you should also look into this.
