ROCKY VISTA UNIVERSITY MESSAGE

Spring has finally arrived! We are now in the season

when the trees and plants begin to blossom, the sun is

shining majestically on our beautiful red mountains, and the days get a little longer. It is a wonderful time to get outside and enjoy the sunshine, the clean, fresh air, and the beautiful nature that surrounds us.

Spring is also the season of renewal, so it is the

perfect time to reevaluate your health-related goals, reinforce good habits, and optimize a healthy lifestyle. In the current world, people are taking the initiative to become more conscious about their health and improve

their diet. There are many new diets which have come

out over the past several decades, with vegetarianism the most common in today’s society.

In this issue, Abby Trihn, a third-year medical student at Rocky Vista University College of Osteopathic Medicine,

informs readers about vegetarianism and the health benefits this lifestyle can provide.

We are honored to be part of this community and look forward to serving the residents of southern Utah. To learn more

about us, please visit our website at www.rvu.edu.

To your health,

David J. Park, DO, FAAFP, FACOFP

Vice President and Dean of the Southern Utah Campus
