Blog13: Tips To Remember During Exams!!

Exam week is probably the most stressful period of the semester for many of you, but, did you know that proper nutrition can decrease your stress? It’s true! Here are some suggestions on how proper nutrition can help reduce your stress while you’re preparing for finals:
•Eat breakfast! It will make you more energized and more able to withstand a long day. In addition, it will begin your day with a more positive attitude.
Make sure you have a balanced, healthy diet. Stress can weaken your immune system, increasing your possibility of getting sick, which will increase your stress level.
•Proper nutrition can help you fight viruses! Carry a snack like fruit, murmura or a protein bar with you.

•It is important that your blood sugar doesn’t get low, as it will increase stress and make you irritable.

•Do not skip meals. Your body needs regular meals, as it keeps you energized, focused, and less stressed.
•Focus on eating foods that stimulate positive emotions. Certain foods cause a release of substances from your brain that give you feelings of pleasure, happiness, and enjoyment; these chemicals are endorphins and dopamine. Examples of these happy foods" include chocolate (remember moderation), milk, bananas, leafy greens, and chicken. Eat complex carbohydrates instead of other types of carbohydrates. A few good choices are whole grains and fruits. Complex carbohydrates help to calm and relax you, as they help a substance responsible for this, called serotonin, to be released from the brain.

By implementing these tips into your diet, perhaps you will feel less stressed during finals! You have nothing to lose, so try them and see how you feel!
All The Best !!

Blog67: Good Carbohydrates vs. Bad Carbohydrates

Carbohydrates  are important to fuel source for our body. Cells in our body rely on glucose to carry out their tasks. Nearly 45 to 65 % of our calories are made up of carbs. When daily carbohydrate needs are met, our body stores the extra carbs in the form of glycogen. This helps us stay without food for several hours and at the same time maintain the required blood sugar levels. It is very important to choose the right kind of carbs.
