U-M experts: Depression a serious struggle for many college students - 0 views

  •  
    The articles I saw posted did not really talk about depression that can come upon a college student. So when I saw this article I skimmed the article and went straight to the comments. I believe that the comments proved to have more information about depression than the article itself.

alcohol disorders in college student - 0 views

  •  
    I think that all college students be be aware of how serious alcohol disorders can affect them. College students should take their health more seriously, especially when it's about alcohol because many bad things can happen. I like how they show you the percentage of alcohol and drugs and how its affected so many college students.

    The term "drug abuse" does not exclude dependency, but is otherwise used in a similar manner in nonmedical contexts. The terms have a huge range of definitions related to taking a psychoactive drug or performance enhancing drug for a non-therapeutic or non-medical effect.

    I agree because it can teach some of the students to be parpared before they start because peer pressure can get them to try new things.

    Monster energy drinks are not healthy and will make your heart burst.
  •  
    I recommend that people dont drink energy drinks but if they do be careful and aware that there are side effects from these energizing drinks!
  •  
    I do believe that energy drinks do kill people and the amount that people consumed in everyday can affect their health and can harm their body
  •  
    Energy drinks may help at that second, but in the long run somoe of them are more hurtful than helpful.
  •  
    I find this article interesting because I drank five hour energy drinks everday until 2006.I didnt know that they were deadly.So glad I do not drink them today.

College students and diet - 0 views

  •  
    I selected this article because I am interested in exercise and diet. This just verifies what I mostly hear from peolple I talk to at my place of employment which is a athletic club.Once in college and out on their own for the first time diet habits become poor for various reasons.To start eating fast foods which are not as healthy as claimed most due to meals that follow fries and cokes.Eating too much junk food because ite convenient and easy.Most meals that are microwavable are loaded with tons of sodium.Once they get to eat usually its too much at one sitting.Eating too much breakfast or none at all.Also ten percent of college students have more than fifteen alcoholic drinks per week, which are empty calories.On the other hand there are many inexpensive ways to change poor diet.1.Prepare balanced meals.2.Eating 5 or 6 meals per day if possible, which 1 or 2 may include protein shakes.3.Eat apple or orange instead of candy bars etc.Apples or oranges will also give you healthy nutritiuos energy which will keep you attentive in class as well.4.Drink water instead of sodas, one they are cheapier, two they are not filled with sugars and caffiene.5.Drink less or lower calorie and less carb alcoholic drinks.
