Going Organic


Question Posted Tuesday May 26 2009, 11:53 am

Ever since I was little I loved fruits and vegetables and eating healthy, I rarely ate junk food but as I got older I started eating more and more junk food. My mom is overweight and never really has healthy food in the house. I'd like to start eating healthier again (not for weight reasons)I have hypoglycemia and 90% of junk food messes up my blood sugar. I don't know what to make for myself. So I have a couple questions.

1) I'm 115lbs (17/f) with a very fast metabolism. I'm not trying to lose weight I'm trying to gain a few pounds. What are nutritional ways to gain weight?

2)How do you make a healthy smoothie? I've got strawberries, blueberries, mango, raspberries and peaches. I'd love something other than the typical strawberry/banana combos that we've all had before.

3)I'll be going to college in August and I think they have an organic cafe on campus but I'm not sure. What are a few really easy meals that can be made in a dorm room?

Thanks!

To gain weight, just eat pasta and meats(cooked healthily) and also bread. You'll gain a bit of weight like that.
Also eating a lot of grapes apparently makes you gain some weight.

My favourite smoothie? I make it with fresh orange juice(no sugars added, totally natural with pulp) then I add banana, mango and peaches and blend it all together. Sometimes if it's too thick, I add more juice or diet vanilla ice cream :)
Also another good one is natural yoghurt, blueberries, strawberries and raspberries (and any other berry you might want to add). If it's too sour, just add a little bit of sugar. (The yoghurt can be replaced by milk)

Sorry, I can't answer question three :(
I hope this helped somewhat.
