A Blog All About Proper Health and Nutrition
Project by Polygence alum Diya
Project's result
Diya compiled all her knowledge into a blog!
They started it from zero. Are you ready to level up with us?
Summary
As a junior in high school, Diya knows all about the stress involved with balancing schoolwork and being an active member of the school community — not to mention the time commitment involved in extracurriculars and managing a social life. Through her transition into high school, the most important thing she has learned is to prioritize taking care of yourself. Without good habits and a healthy lifestyle, she believes you may be limiting your ability to accomplish your goals. So, she created a blog and through thorough research into scientific articles, she wrote posts to provide helpful information that empowers high school students to proactively manage their physical and mental health.

Project review
“I’ve learned a lot about how to research and how to actually create blog posts. Whereas obviously, when I'm getting a regular education at school, we're not really focusing on that. We're following the curriculum and learning material from sources that have mainly been provided to us. So, I think Polygence has really taught me how to go out and find much more in-depth research material. It also helps that you’re getting one-on-one time with someone who is there to personally help you on all aspects of your project from start to finish.”
