Covid 19 and Health Habits

 Question 1:

Question 1 - Do you think the internet has any impact on the social contagion of health habits related to diet and exercise?  What observations or experiences (on campus, off campus, back home with friends and family) have you had to suggest that you adopt the health habits of those around you? Do you think some environments are obesogenic? Where are they? I believe the internet has much impact on the social contagion of health habits related to diet and exercise because the internet is a vital, influential source for Americans today. People use it to find new exercises, new diets, healthy food options, and etc. I can suggest that based on observations and experiences that you adopt the health habits of those around you because you are most likely influenced by the people you hang around with. Therefore, one may choose the same food habits as the people around them.


Question 2:

How did Covid alter you/your family’s relationship with food, in terms of accessibility, health, employment or other factors? Did your diet improve? Get worse? Stayed the same? Personally, my diet has stayed the same. However, I believe that Covid has altered many people's diets, whether that is towards a more healthy direction or non-healthy.
