I am a 19-year old college sophomore at the College of Southern Maryland. My eating habits now that I am in college have become poor. In fact many studies show that the average college student misses at least one meal a day. College students do not take the time or put forth the effort to eat right. While not all college students have been educated on proper nutrition those that have usually choose to ignore it. Almost every college has a diet or nutrition course offered through its physical education department. However it is impossible to stop collegians from snacking and eating their fast food. Steps in better eating are easy to follow and can make college living much healthier. The first step for a college student to do is determine what a good diet is exactly. Eating regular, well-balanced meals is a good start. Along with the food a student must get a proper amount of water, vitamins, and minerals. Young adults require 8 full glasses of water a day. While most consider water bland and not tempting to drink, tea powder and juice concentrate can be added to it to make it more enjoyable. A major problem in college students is their love for soda and artificial juice or sports drinks. Drinking a coke is very unhealthy yet a typical college student drinks at least a 20 ounce bottle everyday.
