Eating Well
The stress response is your body’s signal to adapt to changes in the environment. Everyone reacts differently to stress, but many people find comfort in food, which may lead to overeating or choosing less nutritious foods. What you eat can affect your mood and how you perform academically and nutrition can play a powerful role in your physical and mental health.
Don't let your social distancing change your eating habits and try to follow Canada's Food Guide.
Eat plenty of vegetables and fruits, whole grain foods and protein foods.
Limit highly processed foods. If you choose these foods, eat them less often and in small amounts.
Make water your drink of choice
It also can be easy to graze throughout the day when you are studying at home, without even realizing how much or what you have eaten- try to practice mindful eating.
