Student Athlete

For my Oral Tradition and Readers Theatre class I wrote a speech about being a college student-athlete. In this speech I touched upon the things I eat throughout my extremely busy days when I have class (Monday- Thursday). Usually in between classes I grab a bar to replace a meal and hold me over. I usually switch from different brands of bars every once in a while just to switch it up a little bit and not get sick of the same thing everyday. This past week I have been eating “KIND Healthy Grains” bars. These are small 35g bars unnamed-1that are supposed to replace my appetite and “hold me over” until I can eat a meal. Little did I know, the bars have too much saturated fat in order for them to be considered “healthy”. The bars reportedly have 1.5g (8%) Saturated Fat. I thought I was eating “healthy” foods that were low in fat the whole time, meanwhile, I was wrong. This can go along with the topic of the “Freshmen 15” anunnamedd how it is also false and mislabeled similar to KIND bars.
