In my two years here, I've found that sometimes it can be extremely difficult to get food in the dining hall that doesn't make me feel worse than I already do.
Also stress eating is a real thing!
Here are some foods and drinks that you can stress eat and are ~supposedly~ helpful when tensions are high:
1. Bananas and avocado - for their potassium
2. Tea - very calming
3. Swiss chard and spinach - for magnesium
4. Fish (such as salmon and tuna) - for omega-3 fats
5. Carrots - better to munch on than chips (which admittedly I devour when I'm stressed out)
6. Milk - there are so many vitamins even in a small glass of milk
7. Nuts - once again, better than junk food having vitamins and protein
8. Dark chocolate - a mild stimulant
I know I'll be trying some of these out, and hopefully the dining halls do too!
As the last post of the semester, I have to say this was a great semester and I loved being in a class with all of you. I was very nervous about taking this class (first English class at Smith) but it was definitely worth it and I have you all to thank.
Hope you're all not too stressed this week and as for finals, may the odds be ever in your favor.
