Healthy Student Diet Idea

When coming to University some issues faced by students choosing to cook healthy meals are:

• Limited dietary knowledge.
• Time consuming.
• Little experimentation with new foods.
• Cooking without the correct recipe items - and so students stick to simpler recipes.
  

It is no surprise that fast food is popular amongst students, whether it's after a night out, a microwave meal or from shops on campus. Being bombarded by unhealthy options, little time and a lack of knowledge all provide incentives to eating unhealthy meals.

The Student dietary system is aimed at giving students who wish to change their pattern of eating a chance to do so by providing useful recipes that other students have found useful.

Each recipe will contain simple facts such as how long it takes to prepare, the expected price and nutritional information. Feedback in the form of ratings and comments by other students will help a student make a more informed decision about the recipe.

A monthly schedule of meals(which are basically recipes) will enable students to create a list of ingredients against:

• a specific diet (e.g. vegetarian, vegan, meat eater...),
• nutritional value of recipes,
• or budget.
  

The grocery list could send a text to the user to save writing out lists or even better - ordered over the internet and delivered at a suitable time.
