Eat well

Having a healthy, balanced diet plays an important role in your overall health and wellbeing. Your brain needs a lot of nutrients to function and keep you well. Eating well helps to reduce the risk of physical health problems such as heart disease and diabetes. Eating well also helps with one’s sleeping patterns, energy levels, and general health.

You may have noticed that your mood will often affect the type and the quantity of food you choose to eat. Some foods can lift your mood, energy levels, and concentration, while other foods can have the opposite effect. For example, eating lots of fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, and whole grains can reduce your risk of some mental health conditions such as depression, while eating foods that are high in sugar and saturated fat may increase your risk.

  • How we manage our diet has a direct impact on our overall wellbeing.  Living on campus may restrict your options for cooking your own meals, but it doesn’t mean you can’t manage your food consumption.   All of our food and beverage outlets on campus are known collectively as Food @ Bond and they are highly responsive to student feedback.  Here are some of the ways to connect with the team:

    • A fully up to date Food@Bond Instagram page offers students a full run through of menus and events.  You can make bookings for the University Club restaurant if you’re looking for a treat and even use the “My Menu” tab to submit suggestions. 
    • The Food@Bond Facebook page presents you with updates on their latest menu changes and opportunities to share your feedback and requests for dining options.
