5 PROVEN tips to stay fit as a college student

Some adults think that their college days are the happiest time of their life. While for some it’s true, actually, the college days can be rough for students.

Students are expected to be on top of their game all the time so they won’t lose to the others in the competition of getting a good job. This kind of expectation make many students feel anxious all of the time and do whatever they can to catch up with their overwhelming tasks, even though it often compromises their health.

Besides the factor that we’ve mentioned above, there are other reasons why college illness is more common than students or parents realize. Some of the factors are the poor sanitation in college dorms and poor health habits developed.

And here are some common illness suffered by college students:

This illness is caused by a bacterial infection that results in swelling of the membranes covering the brain. To safeguard college health, a simple meningococcal meningitis vaccination is recommended for students living in dormitories.

Colds and flu viruses thrive on college campuses because students are sharing close quarters and may not take all the preventive measures they should. Most college health centers offer the flu vaccine, and it is recommended for all students.

Norovirus and other foodborne viruses can spread from contaminated food and water and from touching contaminated surfaces — and symptoms like diarrhea and nausea then spread quickly, too. Sharing bathrooms and food sources is a common cause of outbreaks of this college illness.

Mononucleosis is a common college illness caused by the Epstein-Barr virus. Symptoms are severe sore throat, fever, and exhaustion.

Giving your best for your college ambition is great, but you need some strategies to maintain your health. Especially if you don’t want to get sick and let it ruin your hard works.
