However you look at it, the gamer diet really does have its fair share of problems. And while some of the stereotypes are often true, it doesnt always have to be this way.

Gamer Diet: A Closer Look

For years, gamers and video game fans have been stereotyped as lazy, uneducated and, of course, unhealthy. And while there is research that says otherwise (and the fact that there are video games nowadays that focus on giving physical exercise to players), the reality is that it can be hard to defend ourselves when its past midnight, weve been playing for five hours straight and beside us lay an empty pizza box and cans of energy drink. Its even harder to escape the stereotype given that Americas obesity rate is tipping on over 42 percent.

Truth is, the gamer diet really does have a lot of problems, but it shouldnt be like this. Gaming is a wonderful thing, and combined with keeping a healthy routine and constant exercise, it can help us alleviate stress and even allow us to be smarter.

But first, what is the gamer diet? What do you have to steer clear of?

Usually, the so-called gamer diet is filled with snacks that while they are low in calories, actually have no nutritional value whatsoever, with some of them even containing sugar, preservatives and artificial flavorings. This then, can lead to other health issues aside from obesity.

Then there are overly-processed foods such as convenience food and fast food options that often lead to a more sedentary lifestyle. The average fast food meal also clocks in at about 800 calories and when you do nothing but game all day, those calories can easily add up and contribute to weight gain as well as high blood pressure and eventually, heart conditions.

Thankfully, theres an easy way to fix this. Its by simply eating a more balanced diet and putting in the time to take gaming breaks in order to physically exercise. Trust us, gaming wont be as fun when you have a health condition that you have to take care of as well.
