Fueled by Great Nutrition and a Nation of Fans
When Juan Agudelo is out on the soccer field, he isn’t just playing for himself. He’s playing for a nation we all love. “I feel like [Team USA is] all trying to work together to show American athleticism,” he says. To do his part, Juan knows he needs to be in top condition.
Juan believes it is extremely important to eat nutritious foods in order to perform his best every day. He enjoys Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes® cereal and Kellogg’s® brand snack and meal bars such as Nutri-Grain® and Special K™ to fuel him through a long practice.
