Tips & Tricks!
? Salads are a great option to increase vegetable (or even fruit) intake! Be careful though; salads
can be a calorie trap! Always try to remove croutons, cheese, tortilla strips, bacon, etc. and ask for
dressing on the side so you can add a small amount as needed. This will help cut down on refined carbs, saturated fat, and calories!
?
If you get a sandwich, ask for extra veggies like tomato, lettuce, and pickles... omit the mayo or
cheese, if possible... and if it's a chicken breast - eat it without the bun!
?
PLAN AHEAD, if possible. Eating healthy can be difficult, especially with coworkers and at
social events. If you're planning on grabbing lunch with someone, look at the menu beforehand
(most restaurants have this information available online) and ask if you can suggest the location.
That way, you can choose something where everyone can find an option that works for them!
?
When you need a coffee, opt for regular hot or unsweetened iced. Add skim, almond, or soy
milk to it to keep it low-calorie.
?
Always check nutrition labels and ask for nutrition information to make the best decision for
you! Most restaurants keep this information on hand (don't be afraid to ask!). Nutrition information
for GVSU Campus Dining locations, as well as chain restaurants located on GVSU campus can be found
by clicking on the following links. Additionally, direct links to each location's nutrition info are
included, if available.

The following suggestions are based on options with the largest quantity of fruits and vegetables, and guided by recommendations from the American Heart Association (AHA) for foods low in Calories, Sodium, and Saturated Fat. ( downloadable/ucm_465693.pdf) For many of the food items on this list, the sodium content is higher than what is recommended by the AHA.
For a list of GVSU's Vegan and Vegetarian options, please reference the following link: . edu/cms3/assets/08460A47-B5B8-CBB1-72873A88FBD61F54/vegetarian-vegan-list-2.pdf Remember: Always modify your selections based on your individual health needs and/or goals. This list is provided only as a general guide to steer you to the healthiest choices. If you think fresh, unprocessed, and moderate serving size you will be on your way to better health!
