My Last Blog :( ( Showing USF heath in a cool way!)

Although I've said negative and positive things towards the campus, USF does a pretty good job at showing what a healthy culture life style should be like. Everyone on campus looks healthy, but I'm sure their mental state is a little out sync due to finals. I wanted to leave this blog with a video that shows how USF's health programs are making life better.
  

How to Eat Cheap Healthy Food on a College Budget

Now this has nothing really to do with USF, but I thought this video could help a lot of people like myself. Being active in college culture the thing I notice that I don't have a lot of is money, so when I'm hungry I always try to eat the cheapest thing I can find. Of course it ends up be coming fast food, and then I feel bad for myself not eating healthy. Healthy food is always really expensive, and it is rarely an option. This is a video made by a woman named Whitney Lauritsen, and she has some pretty cool solutions towards eating healthy with a budget.

Caffeine is Bad, but yet there is Starbucks?

Taking research that could be found in Alyssa's blog it turns out that caffeine is not good for you. The one thing that I know is that collage culture survives on caffeine. Usually students that attend collage are always trying to study last minute, and it doesn't it get them no where because students always end up falling asleep. What ends up happening is that caffeine becomes sort of a savior to help students stay up to study. As you can tell from Alyssa's blog "How Much is Too Much: Caffeine" caffeine is a drug, and it comes with side effects. My question is why does the campus have a Starbucks in the library if caffeine is such a bad thing. I am not trying to say that Starbucks is a bad or anything, but I  don't understand why a university that focuses on health would have unhealthy products. The reason I think that it is in the library is because its taking advantage from the people that study there. Everybody studies there, and everybody likes caffeine to study with.

Is getting "big" necessary???

From scientific researches, it was said that most of the bodybuilders are black and white, only with a minority of Asians, Hispanics, etc. Mainly due to their body composition mentioned from the previous post, and their living environment and culture, which led to what we see in the picture. So this is one of the bodybuilder that is going into a bodybuilding competition, is this physical monster healthy at all? The answer is no. To build a body like this requires severe dietary, also with a tremendous amount of steroids shot. Not only are exercises important, but a healthy dietary is require to balance the body workload.
