The Average College Student Graduates With $20.000 in Dept

The following is an excerpt from "How to Blitz Your College Loans" by  By Liz Pulliam Weston

"The average college student is now more than $20,000 in debt at graduation. The average salary for a newly minted graduate, meanwhile, is $30,000. No wonder so many grads say "the heck with it" and simply take on more debt -- buying new cars, carrying credit-card balances and paying back as little of their student loans as they can get away with. If you're smart, though, you'll make a concerted effort to get out of debt now -- while you're still young enough to make it count.Why should you care about debt? Well, for one, every dollar you spend on interest for credit cards and loans is a dollar you don't have for other, better uses: saving, investing, spending on something fun.

First things first
Your biggest debt is probably your student loans. The good news is that rates on these loans are low. Your best bet is to pay the minimum possible on these loans while you tackle other, more expensive debt. That could mean consolidating your loans into a 15-year or 20-year repayment plan, or using alternative payment schemes such as Sallie Mae's "income sensitive" or "interest only" options."

Liz Weston recommends once you've got that in place:

1. Pay off your credit card debt.
2. Look at your other, non-mortgage debt.
3. Build up an emergency fund.
4. Save for retirement.

Right about now you most likely are looking at this list and saying to yourself 
"I'm a college student how am I going to get started? School takes all my time!" 
What if you could create cash flow and leverage your time without leaving campus? While you're still in college is the time to plan ahead to look towards all that college debt. Investigate possible solutions to adding cash flow, leveraging your time and energy while you are still in school. 

Begin by asking yourself "Would an extra $300 - $400 per month make a difference?" 

If so, here are some options to consider:

7 Ways to Leverage Time to Create Cash Flow

1. Investigate home based business ie. franchise opportunities, direct sales etc.
2. Create an internet business.
3. Become an affiliate for a variety of products.
4. Network through social media sites.
5. Find products and/or services you can sell on campus.
6. Look into legitimate multi-level marketing.
7. Commission sales position.

Who Doesn't Need to Eat More Fruits and Vegetables

 
A growing body of research shows that fruits and vegetables are critical to good health. To get the amount that's recommended, most people need to increase the amount of fruits and vegetables they currently eat each every day.

The Center for Disease Control (our government) has a great calculator to help you to decide how many you need to maintain a healthy body. Of course this is the minimum requirement to maintain your health... not really neccessarely how many you ACTUALLY need to achieve optimum health. Here you go!

How Many Fruits and Vegetables Do You Need? (calculate here)

Fruits and Vegetables Can Protect Your Health

The Center for Disease Control recommends to eat a variety of fruits and vegetables every day. Why is that?

"Fruits and vegetables contain essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber that may help protect you from chronic diseases. Compared with people who consume a diet with only small amounts of fruits and vegetables, those who eat more generous amounts as part of a healthful diet are likely to have reduced risk of chronic diseases, including stroke and perhaps other cardiovascular diseases, and certain cancers."

Variety + Colors = Health

"Fruits and vegetables come in terrific colors and flavors, but their real beauty lies in what's inside. Fruits and vegetables are great sources of many vitamins, minerals and other natural substances that may help protect you from chronic diseases.

To get a healthy variety, think color.

Eating fruits and vegetables of different colors gives your body a wide range of valuable nutrients, like fiber, folate, potassium, and vitamins A and C. Some examples include green spinach, orange sweet potatoes, black beans, yellow corn, purple plums, red watermelon, and white onions. The key is in the variety and freshness."

View a chart that lists specific nutrients and tells you how these nutrients contribute to good health. You can also find out which fruits and vegetables are good and excellent sources of these nutrients.

Want to lose weight?
Maintain good or achieve optimum good health?
No secret.
Add more fruits, vegetables, whole grains.
Eat less sugar, white flour products, processed foods.

Bad Eating Habits And College Students

New Study: College students not eating enough fruits and veggies published by Oregon State University read on ....

CORVALLIS, Ore. – College students aren’t eating enough fruits and vegetables – in fact, a new study shows students aren’t even eating one serving per day, far from the recommended five daily servings.

The study by Oregon State University researchers surveyed the eating habits of 582 college students, a majority of which were first-year students. The study, now online in the Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior, compares male and female students, but found that both were not getting the proper amount of fruits and vegetables. Male students had about five servings a week, slightly higher than female students who self-reported eating about four servings of fruits and vegetables.

Female students had lower fiber intake, while males tended to consume more fat in their diet. Overall, the females had better eating habits, including skipping fewer meals, eating in the college dining halls more frequently, and reading food labels.

“We found that students skipped meals fairly frequently, which could account for some of the lack of fruits and veggies,” said Brad Cardinal, a professor of exercise and sport science at Oregon State University and one of the study’s authors.

“Still, even accounting for fewer meals consumed, the students were on average not always eating even one serving of fruits or vegetables per day, far below the USDA guidelines.”
Both males and females were consuming more than 30 percent of their calories from fat, which exceeds the American Dietetic Association’s recommendation of no more than 30 percent a week.

Note: The USDA Food Pyramid Guide recommends 7 - 13 servings fresh, raw fruits and vegetables per day. The current Fiber recommendation is 36 grams.

For those who can't, won't or don't know how to get the recommended servings Juice Plus+ is the next best thing to fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Easy, simple and affordable.
