The NEW Nutrition Kitchen of Portage Township YMCA

The Nutrition Kitchen has a goal of offering simple choices and the programming to help you understand how what you put into your body affects how you feel, perform, and live. The Portage Township YMCA identified a need of their members and the community to fuel their bodies before, during and after workouts. With so many weight-loss supplements & other protein shake options out there, it can be hard for anyone without a nutritional background to know how, why and what they should use. Shakes are not the only thing the Nutrition Kitchen offers either; protein bars are also on the menu along with nutrition-based programming & events. We are open to serve our members and the general public!
