Can I get a Energy BOOST!!!!



Here's another installment to our 7x7 series. In this video you will see Ricky, a project associate in our health department. He researched energy and how it effects the body. Energy can have a negative and positive effect on the body. Symptoms are generally fatigue, hyper demeanor, and loss of focus. Ricky discovered that fresh fruits have a significant amount of nutrients that act as energy boosters.








Like a true chef Ricky turned to the kitchen in a attempt to bridge food and science. He created a simple fruit salad and paired it with a cutting edge yoga pose that could be done anywhere.

Enjoy,

Yohan Callen
