2. In our crazy age we, students, are under
the press of various obligations. We haven’t
enough to cook or even to have a meal
properly. So, our tips will help you
To stay in form
To increase brain activity
To get away from stress
3. 1. Have your dessert in the
morning
You’re less likely to
overeat at breakfast.
Plus, taking away
that restrictive
feeling early can keep
cravings away all day
long. A small sliver
after a
balanced breakfast of
protein and healthy
carbs (like eggs and
whole-wheat toast)
could help you eat
healthier later.
4. 2. Start Your Meal With Soup
Research suggests that starting dinner with a vegetable-
based soup may help you to consume 20 percent fewer
calories over the course of your meal
5. 3. Keep Almonds on Hand
Store almonds
in the freezer
to keep them
fresh. Spice
them up for an
appetizer, toss
them in a salad
or eat a
handful for a
snack.
Almonds offer
a satisfying
carbohydrate-
protein combo
and reduce
cholesterol
levels.
6. 4. Read Labels When Shopping for
Crackers
Pick crackers with fiber-rich whole grains, as few
ingredients as possible and no hydrogenated oils (a source
of heart-harming trans fats).
7. 5. Replace Full-Fat Sour Cream
Instead, use reduced-fat sour cream and nonfat plain
yogurt. You'll save calories and fat without sacrificing
flavor.
8. 6. Cook pasta al dente.
A shorter cooking time for your spaghetti may translate into
better digestion—and self-control. You’re going to chew tougher
pasta more, versus slurping down soft noodles. That stimulates
digestive enzymes so you process it better. Bonus: there’s also
some science that says al dente pasta may stabilize blood sugar
levels.
9. 7. Spice up every meal.
Food without spices is
plain and boring. The
solution: adding
seasonings like
cinnamon, turmeric,
garlic, cayenne pepper
and ginger. You won’t
just boost the flavor—
you’ll boost your health
and metabolism too.
Many spices are filled
with antioxidants, good
for blood pressure and
have immune-boosting
properties. And you feel
more satisfied when your
food is more flavorful.
10. 8. Use Stronger Cheeses
Use cheeses like extra-sharp Cheddar—they give a bigger
flavor impact so you can use less and cut saturated fat and
calories.
11. 9. Opt for Brown Rice
Opt for brown rice over white rice whenever possible to
add fiber to your diet. Per cup, brown rice has 3 more
grams of fiber than white.
12. 10. Serve Sandwiches Open-Face
You'll save about 100 calories simply by ditching that top
slice of bread.
13. 11. Let yourself get hungry.
You can snack more often to curb cravings, but experts say
this “preventative eating” may lead to overeating. So try this:
Get a little hungry before your first snack of the day. It can
help you get in touch with your hunger cues and figure out
how much food your body really needs.
