    What's New

    • Have you checked out the new addition to Plato’s: Simply Fine? It's menu is designed to help out those with allergies as well as people who are avoiding garlic and onions for GI health (FODMAPS diet). The veggies are steamed and undressed. The meats, poultry and fish are seasoned with just salt and pepper. There are no other sauces or ingredients. It’s just what you see with only salt and pepper.
    • Skip the wait and order ahead. Gluten-free pasta and pizza, and vegan cheese pizza may be ordered in advance by calling 410-548-5598.

    Bites from the Dietician

    Lauren Won
     

    Articles By

    Lauren Wong, Dietitian Intern

    As a fellow student, Lauren knows all too well the stress that end-of-year finals can bring her and her peers. Emotional responses to stress include agitation, hopelessness, insecurity, forgetfulness and lack of motivation, to name a few. Read more on how nutrition can affect stress and how you can help manage it through the foods you eat in her article “How Can Nutrition Affect Stress?”

     

    Nutrition counseling services are available to all SU students, staff and faculty at no charge (all counseling is confidential).

     

    We’d love to hear from our readers! Are there nutrition questions you have or subjects related to nutrition you would like to learn more about? Email your questions, suggestions and inquiries to Dining@salisbury.edu for publication in our next issue of The Zest.
