TIPH Picture

This picture was taken in our locker room at the baseball field. It is our rehydration/refueling station. Every few days, people from the sports nutrition department restocks it with nuts, trail mix, fresh fruit, and granola bars. This allows us to maintain energy and fight hunger on game days, or days where we have long practices. I chose this example because it is something my teammates and i see and benefit from everyday. Others need to consider this as public health because it helps many people stay energized and able to play and perform at the best of their abilities.
