"The Dorm Room Diet" Daphne Oz

We’re giving away a copy of The Dorm Room Diet by Daphne Oz, daughter of the daytime cardio surgeon TV host, Dr. Oz, and a graduate of Princeton University. Daphne found that although she followed a vegetarian diet, she wasn’t always putting the right things in her body and decided to write the book to assist anyone–living in a dorm or a cubicle–in getting on the right eating track.

Daphne’s book is full of tips for living healthy and green and every day of the contest, Vegetarian Star will bring you a tip from the book. To enter to win, simply “give a tip” back, or leave a comment on the post letting us know your tip for staying healthy.

Everyone knows nuts are good for you (full of omega-3 fatty acids, good source of plant based protein), but if you hate the bitter taste of walnuts you don’t have to miss out. Daphne and her family eat them in the traditional Turkish way by soaking them in water overnight. This takes away the bitterness and neutralizes an enzyme inhibitor, which helps your body absorb more vitamins and nutrients.

So that’s the Dorm Room Diet tip of the day. What’s yours?
