This is Public Health

My name is Haleigh Barrett. This is public health to me.

A BPA Free water bottle promotes a hydrated, active, and clean life-style for me. This water bottle allows me to always have fresh, clean, and cool water to drink (as long as I fill up!). When I drink out of my water bottle in front of other people, it reminds them to stay hydrated and drink water. No one puts soda in a WATER bottle.

This is a sneaker. Public health to me is about the promotion of healthy behavior. We can walk every day and it is a great way to improve our physical fitness and to loss weight. Healthy life style is public health to me.

In a very simple way, this represents Public Health to me because it shows how having places that encourage physical activity is beneficial to the welfare of a community. Having a basket ball court where people live or a park nearby gives opportunity for physical, emotional, and social development, and therefore represents Public Health.

This is Public Health in a very obvious, but profound way. We all have to get to class somehow if we live off campus, and bikes are the perfect way to go! They are affordable and a great exercise tool! Some diet experts say that biking is a better way to lose weight than running. Biking everyday to class has helped with my asthma and adapting to the high altitude! Unfortunately, the paper towels below the bike are not Public Health. Let's remember to clean up our community always! Because a healthy individual can lead to a healthy community.

I think this is public health because smoking can cause serious illness not only person who smokes but also person around people. Secondary smoking can cause more illness than primary smoking. Therefore, prohibition on smoking in public area can be pubic health.

THIS is Public Health

Public health to me is about education and prevention. This includes teaching healthy habits like brushing your teeth and promoting healthy choices and opportunities from a very early age. The second picture is an example of my 4 year old cousin who is already planning her future as a doctor. She loves to role play with her baby doll, taking care of her and advising her how to have a "healthy heart."

This is the FUTURE of Public Health.
