  • Recommendations for dealing with external cues, like calorie counts on food items.
  • How to manage harmful diet culture messaging like the “freshman 15”.
  • How parents can support their teens as they prepare to go away to college.
  • The importance for college students to eat an adequate amount of food to fuel their bodies and brains.
  • The role finances play in food selection both on and off campus.
