You might think you're not in the demographic needing nutritional help- and that might be true! But here is a poke at my experience.

I'm the person taking the selfie! I eat 3 meals a day, I'm the swim varsity co-captain, I cook my own healthy meals- and I love eating healthy because I know it keeps me fueld during the day, but...
...guess who was hospitalized and treated for 2 days in the ER due to digestive tract issues resulting from my diet. Prior to going to the ER, I wasn't able to go to school for a few days thinking it was a stomach bug.
I was hospitalized the DAY before my SAT (luckliy I still was able to take the test) but I could have still been hospitalized the day of my SAT depending on my severity. Additionally, I missed half of my AP Psychology final AND half of my AP Physics 1 final. Additionally, I cut down on spicy foods for a whole week before my stomachaches started, and I even made meal plans to eat healthy
...the reason why I got sick was because of introducing too many different foods into my diet too suddenly. The completely clean diet I was eating actually upset my digestive system because my digestive system was not accustomed to processing the amount of fiber and proteins I started eating. You never really know what your stomach is going to do.
Bad stuff that happened as a result:
Take good care of your health! Start with slow changes in your diet by adding foods that nourish you.
If you are just like me and sometimes you do not eat just because you do not know what to make, here are some recipes that can help you!
