Today’s the last day to enter The Dorm Room Diet “Get A Tip, Give A Tip” contest for a chance to receive a free copy of the book written by Daphne Oz with a forward by her father and daytime TV host, Dr. Mehmet Oz.

To enter, simply leave a comment on this post giving your tip for staying healthy. Be sure to also check out our exclusive interview with Daphne.

In The Dorm Room Diet, Daphne writes about “Danger Zones” or situations where you may be tempted to eat unhealthy high sugar, high fat and low nutrient foods like while watching TV, studying or working late at night or in social situations. One way to counter this is by eating berries during these times.

“They take time to eat, come in small pieces, and are sweet enough to curb sugar cravings,” Daphne writes.

Don’t forget to buy berries organic whenever possible, as some of them, like blueberries and strawberries, are on the dirty dozen list of produce that contains the highest levels of pesticide residue.

And that’s the final tip of the day. What’s yours?

“I was able to go out and interview farmers and learn so much, and I brought home a lot of the ideas. It changed things in my own home. We did a lot of talking about organic and why to buy local and how to go to a farmers’ market. There’s so much cancer in the US now and there’s got to be a reason. Let’s give ourselves a fighting chance by eating organic and eating fresh vegetables. That’s heading in the right direction.”

—Jennie Garth, on her campaign with Hidden Valley Ranch that’s designed to teach parents to convince their children to eat more vegetables. As a mother, Garth is probably also interested in the recent study between inorganic produce and ADHD in children, yet another reason to eat and buy organic!
