First Class

Today was the first day of community nutrition and we went over the objectives and goals of the class. So far it was nothing that I expected. I thought it would be mostly farming but it seems like it will be an overall interesting class. What I hope to get out of the class is to know more about what community nutrition is and experience different aspects of community nutrition in our local area. I believe the numerous guest speakers and field trips will help me gain this insight. Going off what we talked about in class, community nutrition is an area that strives to improve the well-being and health of people in a community. Therefore, I hope that with this class, I will become familiar with the organizations and services that help to improve the health of the people in this Appalachia region. Overall, I think this class will be very useful in helping me with my career in Sports Nutrition because it is a field that is more centered towards a community of athletes.
