The Nutrition Oasis serves as a resource room, providing fuel for athletes before, during and after training. It includes access to protein and carbohydrate recovery drinks, Gatorade and Gatorade products, fresh fruit, nuts, granola, Greek and regular yogurt, string cheese, oatmeal, and bagels for all Tech student- athletes. The Oasis also provides a variety of specials on “Tasty Tuesday” to keep things interesting. A new and improved Oasis opened during the summer of 2013 and includes a much larger space to accommodate a full- service smoothie bar, a nutrition education area, food prep and storage space, an additional sports nutrition office, and room for small, catered events. This space allows the sports nutrition program to continue to improve how it serves Virginia Tech student-athletes from a food and nutrition standpoint. The Oasis also provides an outlet for multivitamins, vitamin D and calcium that come from the nutrition office. N U T R I T I O N O A S I S #getB3 TTER #ThisIsHome 93
