We college students are extremely busy and have many obligations such as going to class, club meetings, working out, and going out. It is very easy to feel run down or under the weather during a long week studying followed by a jam-packed weekend, so it is more important than ever to take care of our bodies.

Most colleges these days encourage healthy eating and healthy living, so most of these are even sold on most college campuses, or else right nearby! These health crazes or superfoods can vastly improve your well-being and help you to stay happy and healthy!

Acai

Acai berries contain antioxidants, fiber, and heart-healthy fats. They are considered a superfood and give you the boost of energy you need to get through your day! Plus, when paired with other fruits, nuts, or almond butter, you can create a delicious and healthy smoothie bowl or snack!

Kombucha

Kombucha is mostly famous for being disgusting, as it is an acquired taste, but if you get the right flavor you may just love it! Kombucha is a probiotic and works wonders when it comes to digestion, mental clarity, and mood stability. It comes in a variety of flavors like champagne and pink lemonade!

Apple Cider Vinegar/Wheatgrass Shots

If you thought kombucha was gross, think again. Shots of apple cider vinegar or wheatgrass each morning are known to give you an energy boost and contain weight loss and detoxing properties. Warning: pair with lemon juice or water DO NOT drink these straight.

Chia Seeds

Chia seeds are teeny tiny little seeds you can put on pretty much anything from almond butter toast to a smoothie bowl. They contain a whole host of benefits such as helping with skin, digestion, and heart health. They also give you a boost of energy, help you develop stronger bones, build muscle so you can lose weight and fight against certain cancers! Chia seeds are such an easy way to incorporate that added boost of health into your daily diet!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
