In Episode 4, we learn about the importance of hydration in commercial fishing. We hear from an ergonomics expert and registered dietitian who talk about the impacts of (de)hydration on the working body, and from a commercial fisherman who shares their experiences with what on-board hydration actually looks like.
The Fishing Forward is a podcast inspired by fishermen, for fishermen, featuring discussions from scientific experts and fishermen on health, safety, and staying shipshape in the commercial fishing industry. Fishing Forward funded and produced by the Northeast Center for Occupational Health and Safety, and by the Coastal Routes Radio team at the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada and Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
Fishing Forward is hosted by Dr. Hannah Harrison (@fishpeopleplace) at Dalhousie University and Dr. Philip Loring (@ConserveChange) at the University of Guelph.
