Have you ever skipped a meal to “save those calories” for happy hour or drinks later that night? You are not the only one to try and out smart your body. In fact, 20% of students in America suffer from ” Drunkorexia.” Undergraduate females are three times more likely to skip day-time calories and consume them by alcohol instead.

The top three reasons why students suffer from “Drunkorexia:”

  1. Control their Weight
  2. Save Money
  3. Get Drunk Faster

It does not take a college degree to understand that depriving the body of nutrients and fueling it on alcohol is a recipe for disaster, but skipping a meal for one night of a flat stomach will not only leave you with a hangover the next day, but long-term cognitive problems including difficulty concentrating, studying and making decisions.

A helpful page for those who do consume alcohol, but want to be conscious of their calorie intake should visit Drinkaware

Please remember that the fruit in the jungle juice does not count as your daily fruit serving!
