Keep It Simple: Smart Meal Planning

Batch Cooking: Within one to two hours, on Sunday, prepare basic ingredients: chicken, rice, lentils, pasta, and even grilled chicken and roasted vegetables. Throughout the week, mix and match these ingredients.

Soups, stir-fries, and sheet pan dinners all require just one pot or pan, saving you time and effort in the kitchen.

Snack Prep: Instead of sprinting to the vending machine, pack fruits, nuts, or granola bars.

Grocery habits cheap, and also good

Every student should always have on hand oatmeal, eggs, beans, rice, and frozen vegetables, as they are cheap, versatile, and filling.

Canned and frozen foods are more affordable and have a longer shelf life than fresh food, but are just as nutritious.

Smart Shopping: Student discounts and store loyalty cards, as well as apps like Too Good To Go, help you to pay less for your meals.

Why Vitamins D and C are Important

“Little sunshine” – the body produces vitamin D from the sun and it plays a part in bone, immune, and emotional health.

Where to find it:

Sun: 10 – 30 minutes for a few days a week starting and ranging from the spring & fall, depending on your skin tone.

Fatty fish: Salmon, mackerel, and fortified milk also, as well as eggs.

Why test first?

Many people, especially those who study in classrooms, might not get enough. Excessive amounts of vitamin D can harm the kidneys, along with the balance of calcium.

"The Immunity Booster": Vitamin C

Function: Fights infections, heals wounds, and absorbs iron.

Sources:

Citrus fruits, like oranges and lemons, as well as bell peppers, strawberries, and broccoli.

Why test first?

A well-balanced diet can supply enough vitamin C. An excessive amount of vitamin C can result in stomach upset and the development of kidney stones.

Avoid taking vitamins “just in case.” Also, avoid the habit of ‘filling in the gaps’ by overusing vitamins as snacks. Take a test, consult a physician, and only after, add certain vitamins in a reasonable amount to your diet.

Evaluate your Vitamin D levels if you spend long periods indoors, live in a cold climate, or often feel tired.

Consume a variety of fruits and vegetables to attain the required vitamin C.

Consult your physician before commencing vitamin supplements.

Stay Healthy and Full of Energy

Stay hydrated. Exhaustion can easily be avoided when you drink enough water.

Cut down on sugary drinks. Instead of soda or energy drinks, which result in crashes, opt for smoothies, black coffee, or green tea.

Protein-rich snacks like Greek yogurt, hummus, and boiled eggs are great snacks to eat between classes.

Eating Out Without Feeling Bad

Eating out can be fun, but should only be done in moderation.

Opt for the healthiness of grilled foods as opposed to fried.

Where you can, try to add a small salad or a portion of some vegetables for the side.

Do not miss meals in some stop to “save up” for the meal; that doesn’t work.

Why It Matters For People

Eating well doesn’t have to come from complex dieting, but rather from providing the body and mind enough energy to survive harrowing lectures, grueling group work, and exam bhutan weeks.

Eating the proper meals aids with concentration, aids in wellness, and promotes better sleep. Small changes within a semester, for example, can prove to be life changing.

Instead of chips, some nuts; instead of soda, some water.

Prepare simple, affordable meals. A balanced diet is necessary to ensure that the body retains sufficient energy. Flexibility to rest, socialize, and focus on academics is crucial to ensure a well rounded student life.
