Thanks to this med student, your doctor may someday prescribe fresh fruits and veggies
Sarayna Schock understands the importance of good nutrition from a patient's perspective and, now, from a doctor's perspective.
After educating herself and modifying her own unhealthy diet, Sarayna connected the dots between good nutrition, better health, and local agricultural practices.
A third-year medical student at Penn State College of Medicine, Sarayna is the creator of ProduceRx, a unique program that uses a doctor's prescription pad to connect people who need more fruits and vegetables with people who grow them.
