Hi Dhyani, I completely agree! Studying for boards can be so overwhelming especially when we’re still activity taking classes. But prioritizing fewer tasks can make a huge difference in our performance. Good luck on all of your exams! #beh353

I plan to incorporate nutrition in my role as a future health professional by discussing what to look for while grocery shopping and how to understand labels. This will help patients make better choices with their eating habits by being more knowledgeable while shopping. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I love anything seafood! But, I have never tried crawfish and the nutrition profile looks great. That will be on my bucket list this summer.

Hi Nancy, I also have been loving an egg sandwich for breakfast lately. I make mine on an english muffin. Good luck with finals! #beh353

One thing i’m going to look for in any nutrition post before i take it as a fact are credible sources. Lately, I’ve been loving honey glazed salmon which I make in the air fryer with white rice using rice cooker! it’s a quick and delicious meal @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

Hello, I think this is a great article, it’s very straight forward and is trustworthy which is important for us to provide resources that are credible! #beh353

This is a nice guide while food shopping. The oils we use to cook our food actually does matter and can help cut out unnecessary calories and saturated fat intake! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

Childhood Nutrition Facts Healthy eating in childhood and adolescence promotes proper growth and development.

As a future dental hygienist, I would share this link with parents because it’s credible and easy to follow. It has many tips and facts that will help guide parents to a nutritionist and well balanced diet that will help with their systemic and oral health! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I completely agree, small changes are the key to making an impactful difference to one’s diet. Something that I started doing differently was using sugar free creamers for my coffee and being mindful on how much I am using. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

I definitely agree, making smaller goals and starting small can lead to consistent habits that will follow someone for a lifetime, i think it’s more effective than making big changes abruptly. @beh353.bsky.social

Tom’s story shows that small goals with consistency can make a real change. It also showed that you do not have to make a drastic changes in your diet to lose weight and having certain foods in moderation is okay! It’s not a diet but a lifestyle. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

This is so true, it reminds me of the Cobb Salad from Chick-fil-a actually being the item with the most calories on the menu. We must be mindful of the dressings we use on our salads.

Hi Emilia, I totally agree. Some people believe being harsh and mean will benefit others in the long run but in reality it is just inconsiderate and rude. #beh353

James Corden’s statement that fat shaming is not an effective method to weight loss, but is just bullying really stuck out to me. There are many reasons why one may be over weight, such as genetic or environmental factors. Fat shaming is just ignorant and unnecessary. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I love finding recipes that are quick and easy to prepare. As a college student it can be hard to find the time to meal prep and prepare meals that pack all the nutrients needed. I will be trying this! #beh353

I totally agree with this and can also relate to baseline hunger. Sometimes I use unhealthy foods as a comfort during stressful situations. I would love to work on finding healthier alternatives that bring the same sense of comfort. #beh353

A barrier that I am faced with is the lack of time to prepare healthier meals. As a student who commutes, i do not have much free time to plan and prepare my meals. Therefore I will usually eat foods that are easy and quick to access which aren’t always the healthiest. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

This is so cool! I would love to try this. I could imagine this being a great way to get kids to get more vitamins and supplements in with fun shapes for their gummies. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

Tea’s are a great way to get the benefits of herbs and dietary supplements. It’s a good alternative to having a coffee when you want something warm in the morning. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

A dietary supplement that I have look into are Chlorophyll drops, usually mixed with water. It became very popular a few years ago to promote weight loss. And I have seen that there are many other benefits such as improving acne, reducing inflammation, and boosts energy. @beh353.bsky.social #Beh353

Chai seeds contributing to reduced cardiovascular disease risk is so interesting! I will definitely be recommending patients to include chai seeds in their diet in the future. There are so many easy recipes you could make with them as well! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

This is so interesting! I think this is a great source as it gives information that not many people would know about and is a great way to promote nutritional and healthy ways to improve sleep! #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

I would share this article to a patient because it provides information from professionals to describe the relationship between diet, nutrition, and oral health. This is a high quality resource as it provides evidence based information and refrences. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

This is definitely a diet I would try! There are so many plant based options these days and so many recipes. The accessibility to plant based substitutions makes it easier to follow this diet and the benefits are amazing! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

Wow, this is interesting. I have never heard of this diet but it sounds very dangerous considering the extremely low calorie intake while also burning calories during cardio!

Juice cleansing is a diet in which one only consumes juices from fruits and vegetables. I could see where the benefits come in because fruits and veggies have many nutrients, but I wonder if the lack of fats and proteins in this diet would be more harmful than beneficial. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

This sounds so yummy! I love pasta and switching to plant based pasta is a great way to make the dish more nutrient dense. More nutrients from the veggies and less empty calories. I can’t wait to try this! #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

Hi Brenda! Panini’s are delicious and I love all the substitutes you have in mind! I will definitely be giving this a try, we don’t have to give up the foods we love, just make better choices on the ingredients!

I drink an iced coffee almost everyday. Lately I have been considering making my iced coffee more nutrient dense but switching the creamer/milk for a vanilla protein shake. I can add my espresso into the protein shake to reduce my sugar intake and increase my protein. @beh353.bsky.social #beh352

I love learning about different foods that can provide us with what we need. Food can cause healing when you are mindful of the benefits certain foods have. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social
