We’ve published a new digital nutrition service called FSHS Nutrition. It offers coaching, podcasts, articles and a diverse range of other material you can use whenever or wherever you choose.
The service has been designed with students and their needs in mind. You can download FSHS Nutrition on your mobile device via the Self online service and use it for the entire duration of your studies.

FSHS Nutrition is based on the MealLogger Plus service developed by an FSHS partner. MealLogger Plus is the first nutritional app used by the FSHS. It was produced by Wellness Foundry together with Wellmo and Provention. A study on its effectiveness will also be carried out in collaboration with the University of Helsinki.
