  1. What Should I Eat? By Max Nichols

  2. According to the Author • At my age some rules laid out in Mr. Weil’s book still apply. • I need to eat a lot of Omega 3 fatty acids and get plenty of protein and non processed carbohydrates. • But I also need to eat a lot more than he recommends.

  3. My typical day • Every day it is recommended for me to eat at least 3000 calories a day. That is as much as a grown man, so getting that amount can be difficult. • So in a typical day I need to eat foods with lots of calories in a large meal.

  4. But Healthy (unfortunately) • Just needing to get 3000 calories a day doesn't mean I should just eat 3 big macs and get it over with. It just means my portion size needs to be a little bigger. • Maybe eating 3 slices of salmon instead of two or having another apple. This is also a really good way to stay overall healthy.

  5. To Summarize • Unfortunately if I wanted to eat better and eat what is recommended like carbs and protein. The choice simply doesn't exist at school. • I believe that this needs to change, sure school lunches have more fruit but the meals usually aren't that good and the fruit gets thrown out. I'm not pretending to know the solution all I know is that something needs to change.
