Meatless Monday

Most of the saturated fat in your diet comes from meat. Saturated fat is the icky stuff that clogs arteries, which can lead to heart disease and stroke. 

Go meatless one day per week and reduce your intake of saturated fat. It matters!

Research shows that by reducing your saturated fat intake by just 15 percent, you can reduce your chance of heart disease, stroke, cancer and diabetes. So, how can you reduce your intake by 15 percent?

Do the math

One meatless day out of 7 = 15 percent reduction! 

How easy is that?

Go meatless on campus

Many locations in the Student Union Northern Fare Food Court feature a meatless entree on Mondays. Check out the Chartwells website for daily menu options. 
Meatless meals are also offered in various locations on campus throughout the week.                                                                                                                                                                            Healthy Monday Thumb
