Observations Concerning Particular Foods and Dietary Habits


When looking through other’s journals concerning nutrition and dietary habits, I found it really interesting what Aaron said about eggs and their contribution to health. Being a vegetarian, I rely heavily on eggs in my diet for their protein and for their taste, so hearing all these facts made me less concerned about how many eggs I decide to eat a day because I know I’m getting proper protein and amino acids, which can be difficult when eating meat is not an option.
Another food I found interesting was Dani’s observation of many students at DU eating yogurt on a daily basis. This is also something I personally do in order to make my meals look more healthy and to put food in my stomach. What I found interesting was how yogurt has more benefits than things like milk because it is better fitted for those who are lactose intolerant and it has microorganisms which benefit the digestive system.
