Nutrition Services for Staff Members
Healthy eating does not need to be complicated or expensive!
A stressful routine does not leave any time for the planning or preparation of elaborate meals.
Nevertheless, nutrition is of vital importance to our body, mind and brain: we are what we eat! Everybody should spend some time thinking about a balanced diet.
Initiatives
Take part in our healthy eating events and initiatives and get into a balanced diet.
Once a semester and in cooperation with University Sports, IEL and Studierendenwerk, we organize a week of daily healthy meals in the University canteens, a nutrition quiz and sports activities.
The dates will be published here.
The nutrition coach provides the opportunity to keep a diary of and analyze what you eat and drink. You can incorporate your own recipes or gain inspiration for tasty—and healthy—new recipes.
