Going vegan can have a negative impact on your protein intake, but there are ways to avoid this common problem. If you’re thinking of giving a plant-based diet a shot, but aren’t sure how to keep your protein intake on a healthy side, here are five protein-rich foods worth trying.

Tofu

Tofu is one of the most popular plant-based meat alternatives, and it can help you up your protein intake. Other soy-based meat alternatives, such as tempeh, and edamame, can have the same effect.

Seitan

Often referred to as wheat meat and gluten meat, seitan is one of the richest vegan sources of protein, and it can contain up to 25 grams of protein per just 100 grams.

Lentils

A single cup of lentils can provide over half of the recommended daily fiber intake, in addition to being rich in protein, folate, manganese, iron, and antioxidants, so you should definitely make them a part of your diet.

Beans & Chickpeas

Chickpeas and different varieties of beans are also great sources of protein since most types contain around 15 grams of protein per cup.

Quinoa

Quinoa can also help you significantly up your protein intake, in addition to being packed with complex carbs, fiber, iron, phosphorus, and magnesium.

The “75 Hard” challenge became a huge sensation in the fitness community in recent years, but it can sound intense if you’re still a beginner. If you want to embrace it in a realistic way that works for you, we’re here with some ideas that can help you bend the rules.

Rule 1: Healthy Diet

The first rule of the “75 Hard” challenge is all about following a healthy diet, and you can embrace it in any way you see fit because it’s not extremely specific.

Rule 2: Two Daily 45-Minute Workouts

The second rule is much harder to follow, especially as a busy college student. Doing two 45-minute workouts a day probably sounds like a mission impossible, but you can always try making your workouts shorter.

Rule 3: A Gallon of Water

This rule will help you stay hydrated throughout the day. If drinking a full gallon of water sounds like too much, try starting with eight glasses or two liters per day.

Rule 4: 10 Pages of Non-Fiction

You’re probably already reading 10 pages of school materials every day, but you can broaden your horizons by adding some non-fiction to the mix.

Rule 5: Progress Pictures

If you want to track your progress while taking part in the “75 Hard” challenge, progress pictures will get you there. You can use them as a motivational tool because they’ll remind you how far you’ve come and inspire you to keep going.

We’ve seen many content creators find viral fame on Instagram with their study tips, but none of them compares to Sam Stones Hälleberg. He became a true sensation with a million followers under his belt after he started sharing study tips and tricks that will guide you through your academic journey.

Hälleberg is a 19-year-old content creator from Stockholm, Sweden, who decided to study applied mathematics and entrepreneurship because it allowed him to explore the subjects he’s passionate about, while also focusing on running his own business.

The arrival of a new season usually means that you’ll have to upgrade your wardrobe, but this doesn’t come cheap. Luckily, there are ways to refresh your wardrobe without spending a fortune, and these five are a good place to start. 

Don’t Buy What You Have

Refreshing your fall wardrobe is not a must if you already have everything you need. Before buying anything new, take some time to go through your closet and assess the clothes you already have to avoid unnecessary purchases.

Consider Thrifting

Thrift shopping is great for both the environment and your wallet, so consider hitting local second-hand stores before going anywhere else. Try to find gently used fall essentials at an affordable price instead of buying new ones.

Versatile Pieces

When shopping for new clothes, try to focus on versatile pieces that you can easily mix and match with different outfits.

Look For Discounts

Certain items that you’ll need for fall, such as boots and coats, will come with a high price tag, so put some effort into looking for sales and discounts so you won’t spend a fortune.

Smart Accessorizing

Even if you don’t have too many clothes, using accessories strategically goes a long way, since a statement belt, scarf, or handbag can make every outfit seem fresh.

Being a student is difficult. There are so many factors to consider each week, including studying, part-time work, social activities, and self-care. It can feel pretty overwhelming trying to fit it all in, and on top of this daily chores such as cleaning, laundry, and cooking have to be done. Understandably, many students look to cut corners wherever possible, and for many, this might be to replace cooking with ordering takeout food. While this is delicious from time to time, it’s not a great habit to get into. Instead, consider meal prepping. This simple act could totally change your student life, and here’s why.

Can Save You So Much Time

Just by setting aside a few hours on a particular day, you can end up with masses of extra time in your week to do as you please. Having meals ready to go each day means no cooking, and barely any washing up.

So Much Healthier

If your alternative to cooking would be takeout food or ready meals, then meal prepping will help you stay super healthy while living a busy schedule. You can stack each meal full of veggies and protein, and reduce the risk of snacking on unhealthy options once you’ve had a proper, hearty meal.

Can Save Loads of Money

Of course, ordering takeout food is expensive, and even buying ready meals can work out to be worse value than home cooking. However, meal prepping can even save you money compared to cooking from scratch each day. You’ll be buying exact amounts for your portions so it will reduce food waste, and will use less energy cooking in one session.

Jumping into college life is like starting a brand-new Netflix binge–it’s easy to get lost in it. But between all the classes, new friends, and that optional, kinda-mandatory social life, make sure you’re not ghosting your family. A little effort goes a long way in keeping those back-home relationships just as strong as your new campus bonds. Here are a few tips.

Schedule Regular Check-Ins

Set a regular schedule for calls or video chats. Whether it’s a weekly FaceTime session or a bi-weekly phone call, having these appointments in your calendar ensures you won’t go too long without catching up. It’s something for both you and your family to look forward to and helps everyone stay updated on each other’s lives.

Embrace Group Chats

Creating a family group chat is a fantastic way for quick updates, share photos, or just sending funny memes. It keeps the day-to-day communication light-hearted and engaging, making everyone feel more involved without the need for long conversations.

Plan Home Visits

Nothing compares to face-to-face interaction. Plan ahead for when you’ll return home—perhaps during holidays or special family occasions. These visits can be a great recharge, giving you the family time you miss while away. Additionally, inviting family members for campus visits can also help them feel more connected to your new life.

We’ve seen many content creators find viral fame on Instagram with their study tips, but none of them compares to Sam Stones Hälleberg. He became a true sensation with a million followers under his belt after he started sharing study tips and tricks that will guide you through your academic journey.

Hälleberg is a 19-year-old content creator from Stockholm, Sweden, who decided to study applied mathematics and entrepreneurship because it allowed him to explore the subjects he’s passionate about, while also focusing on running his own business.

“In my younger years, I always had my sights on becoming a doctor because I wanted to help people and when I got older I got really interested in running my own business. So the education I chose kept my options in the future open to pursue whatever inspires me,” he explained on his Instagram.

It took only a year and a half for Hälleberg to attract a million followers to his Instagram page, and that’s not a coincidence. He put a lot of effort into creating educational posts that will help you take your studying sessions to new heights and become the best student you can be.

The arrival of a new season usually means that you’ll have to upgrade your wardrobe, but this doesn’t come cheap. Luckily, there are ways to refresh your wardrobe without spending a fortune, and these five are a good place to start. 

Don’t Buy What You Have

Refreshing your fall wardrobe is not a must if you already have everything you need. Before buying anything new, take some time to go through your closet and assess the clothes you already have to avoid unnecessary purchases.

Consider Thrifting

Thrift shopping is great for both the environment and your wallet, so consider hitting local second-hand stores before going anywhere else. Try to find gently used fall essentials at an affordable price instead of buying new ones.

Versatile Pieces

When shopping for new clothes, try to focus on versatile pieces that you can easily mix and match with different outfits.

Look For Discounts

Certain items that you’ll need for fall, such as boots and coats, will come with a high price tag, so put some effort into looking for sales and discounts so you won’t spend a fortune.

Smart Accessorizing

Even if you don’t have too many clothes, using accessories strategically goes a long way, since a statement belt, scarf, or handbag can make every outfit seem fresh.

Being a student is difficult. There are so many factors to consider each week, including studying, part-time work, social activities, and self-care. It can feel pretty overwhelming trying to fit it all in, and on top of this daily chores such as cleaning, laundry, and cooking have to be done. Understandably, many students look to cut corners wherever possible, and for many, this might be to replace cooking with ordering takeout food. While this is delicious from time to time, it’s not a great habit to get into. Instead, consider meal prepping. This simple act could totally change your student life, and here’s why.

Can Save You So Much Time

Just by setting aside a few hours on a particular day, you can end up with masses of extra time in your week to do as you please. Having meals ready to go each day means no cooking, and barely any washing up.

So Much Healthier

If your alternative to cooking would be takeout food or ready meals, then meal prepping will help you stay super healthy while living a busy schedule. You can stack each meal full of veggies and protein, and reduce the risk of snacking on unhealthy options once you’ve had a proper, hearty meal.

Can Save Loads of Money

Of course, ordering takeout food is expensive, and even buying ready meals can work out to be worse value than home cooking. However, meal prepping can even save you money compared to cooking from scratch each day. You’ll be buying exact amounts for your portions so it will reduce food waste, and will use less energy cooking in one session.

Jumping into college life is like starting a brand-new Netflix binge–it’s easy to get lost in it. But between all the classes, new friends, and that optional, kinda-mandatory social life, make sure you’re not ghosting your family. A little effort goes a long way in keeping those back-home relationships just as strong as your new campus bonds. Here are a few tips.

Schedule Regular Check-Ins

Set a regular schedule for calls or video chats. Whether it’s a weekly FaceTime session or a bi-weekly phone call, having these appointments in your calendar ensures you won’t go too long without catching up. It’s something for both you and your family to look forward to and helps everyone stay updated on each other’s lives.

Embrace Group Chats

Creating a family group chat is a fantastic way for quick updates, share photos, or just sending funny memes. It keeps the day-to-day communication light-hearted and engaging, making everyone feel more involved without the need for long conversations.

Plan Home Visits

Nothing compares to face-to-face interaction. Plan ahead for when you’ll return home—perhaps during holidays or special family occasions. These visits can be a great recharge, giving you the family time you miss while away. Additionally, inviting family members for campus visits can also help them feel more connected to your new life.
