Incorporate fruits and vegetables into your diet daily from "summary" of The Dorm Room Diet by Daphne Oz
To really make the dorm room diet work for you, you have to make fruits and vegetables your best friends. They are the secret weapons in the battle of the bulge. These natural powerhouses are low in calories, high in fiber, and packed with essential vitamins and minerals. They are the superheroes of the food world, fighting off disease and keeping your body in top shape.
Fruits and vegetables should be the stars of your plate at every meal. Aim to fill half your plate with these colorful goodies. Think about all the different colors of the rainbow - red peppers, orange carrots, green spinach, blueberries, purple grapes. Each color represents different nutrients that your body craves.
Make it a goal to eat at least five servings of fruits and vegetables every day. This may sound like a lot, but it's actually quite doable. Start your day with a banana on your cereal or an apple on your way to class. Pack some baby carrots or cherry tomatoes for a midday snack. Add a side salad to your lunch and steamed veggies to your dinner. Before you know it, you'll have met your goal.
Don't be afraid to get creative with your fruits and vegetables. Try new recipes and experiment with different flavors. Mix fruits into your yogurt or oatmeal for a sweet treat. Roast vegetables with olive oil and herbs for a savory side dish. The possibilities are endless when it comes to incorporating fruits and vegetables into your diet.
By making fruits and vegetables a priority in your diet, you'll not only feel better physically but mentally as well. Your body will thank you for fueling it with the nutrients it needs to function at its best. So next time you're at the grocery store, load up on those fruits and veggies and watch your health improve before your eyes.
