Good Formulas for Health
It's not every day that your guest speaker comes running into his engagement with mountain gear on, but then again Emeritus Professor Scott Hewitt is not your average speaker. Faced with health challenges as a young man, Scott took a scientific approach to figuring out what was wrong with his body. It wasn't long before he realized that every time he ate sugar, he became ill. Scott said that before he could share his findings with his family, he tested his hypothesis by "loading up on candies" which made him "violently ill" again.
An Emeritus Professor from California State University Fullerton in Chemistry and Biochemistry, Scott used his scientific prowess to effectively navigate his health issues without compromising his love of running. Even when injured, Scott found ways to strengthen his body to continue running up mountains, literally. He has run up Mt. Baldy and Mt. Whitney in record time. Today, he is an accomplished mountain runner who has earned many medals for long-distance races with steep vertical gains. At last Thursday's Who Knew? Speaker Series, Scott not only shared harrowing stories of running down a mountain in the dark with a broken headlamp, he also demonstrated exercises that helped strengthen his back and leg muscles. Additionally, he showed our guests some of the gear that he uses on runs including shoe spikes and backpack. The audience was especially interested in learning more about diet and exercises for expanding their lifespan. Scott answered questions and gave book recommendations. The next day, Volunteer, Bea Lee said, "I overheard a few attendees who were drinking their coffee and sharing positivity with others about what they learned from Scott." As a special treat, Hammer Nutrition provided packets of their Hammer Gel, in various flavors, that Scott eats while on his runs. Samples were given to our guests to take home. We would like to thank Hammer Nutrition for donating these items for our event and Professor Hewitt for taking the time to share his story. Per the attendees' request, below is the list of books recommended by Professor Hewitt.
