“Dot-Mil-Docs” Nutrition for the Elite

September 02, 2008
No. 08-89

FALLS CHURCH, Va. – Mike Caviston is the Director of Fitness at the Naval Special Warfare Center.  In anticipation of the Navy Seal PT Challenge on Saturday, Sept. 6 he will discuss the importance of nutrition and physical conditioning for these elite warriors and how it applies to the rest of us.
 
            Hosted by the Department of Defense, “Dot-Mil-Docs” broadcasts at www.blogtalkradio.com/Dot-Mil-Docs Thursdays at 3 p.m. (EDT).

            With thousands of downloads it is evident that the “Dot-Mil-Docs” audience is growing. “Dot-Mil-Docs” first aired on May 1, 2008 with the ultimate goal of providing insight into Military Health System (MHS) leadership and the various agencies, programs and departments they represent. Each episode aims to provide information that beneficiaries can actually use in their daily lives. “Dot-Mil-Docs” also presents the opportunity for the MHS to talk about resources which may otherwise go unknown.  

            For the convenience of the listener, previous “Dot-Mil-Docs” shows are available for download from two different sources: visit the video and audio section on www.health.mil or www.blogtalkradio.com/Dot-Mil-Docs.
