This routine is difficult in stressful environments that foster unhealthy eating habits, such as college campuses.
Lois Durant, the resident dietitian with George Mason University dining services, understands this and does her best to keep the students informed on what they are eating, such as the advertisement of nutrition facts in major dining areas.
"It is the best point of contact to have the information," she said in an interview. "Labels on the front of packaging are also coming soon, but that is only part of the puzzle. The other part is customer participation."
Lois Durant has been the resident dietitian with GMU dining for the past eight years. Before that, she was a food service director at the Laudon County Hospital of Virginia.
Having this information available is a huge asset for the many students on campus that endure dietary restrictions.
