I am a big zucchini bread lover! This recipe is a good one and I may use! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

Hi Shivani! I agree with your thoughts here! As future providers we should use our knowledge on nutrition to educate our patients as best as we can. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

As a future healthcare provider, I will continue to promote healthy habits and have a holistic approach to patient care. Spreading knowledge and awareness about nutrition is important. It improves your patients health to help prevent diseases and future conditions. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

This is a great article! Especially for collage students who are approaching finals week. When I am stressed and studying I tend to revert to salty snacks that aren't very nutritious. However, I will look back at this article! Thanks!

Hi Julia! I do the same! However, sometimes I don't eat the most nutritious snack. Fruit is a good idea. I enjoy frozen fruit🍇🫐

During finals I eat quicker meals. For breakfast a quick meal I do, that is nutritious, is a yogurt cup with fruit. I can eat this on the go and it's delicious! I always look at the back of the yogurt cups to make sure that it has the least amount of ingredients! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I enjoyed reading this article. Many loved ones I know have high cholesterol. This article is important because many people dealing with high cholesterol don't know the foods they should and shouldn't be eating. Thanks!

Hi Angelina! This article is super helpful! It's so important that kids in school districts are provided with healthy foods and physical activity throughout the day. As it helps with child development and well being. Your source is reputable and easy to read. Thanks!

The article I found talks about the different types of foods kids should have on their plates to create a balanced diet. The article is easy to read and has many fun pictures that kids can look at as reference. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I love hummus! It has many nutritional benefits. It can help with heart health, digestive health, and even weight management. "The Rainbow Hummus Experience" is a great way to give people ideas of different types of hummus to add into their diets! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

Hi Zorely! I agree, weight loss journeys can be emotional. It's hard for people to loose weight and keep it off. They go through many battles with themself. As upcoming healthcare professional we should learn now the importance of being empathetic with our patients. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

Tom talks about how embarrassed he felt about his weight. He mentioned how a doctor made him feel ashamed and he didn't go to the doctors for awhile after that. As healthcare workers we shouldn't judge any of our patients. We should have empathy and be a helpful resource. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

Hi Skylar! Childhood obesity being directly linked to poverty is something that stuck with me, too. Many people can't afford healthy food or healthcare because it is expensive. We need to consider these things. Thanks for your thoughts!

I didn't know that childhood obesity is directly linked to poverty. Fat shaming is horrible and leads to depression, anxiety, and self-destructive behavior. It is bullying. We should be supporting people and properly educating on nutrition instead of tearing them down. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I am a big spinach fan. I enjoy adding it to my eggs and smoothies. I love this article because I enjoy adding healthy foods, like spinach, into my everyday meals. This article helps to give more ideas! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I love a savory snack like potato chips. Finding this healthy alternative for one of my favorite snacks is perfect! I enjoy finding healthy recipe alternatives for junk food. My body feels better after and I crave less. Crunchy kale chips with salt are a favorite of mine! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

Hi Yulianis! I agree with you here. I struggle with lack of time to prepare healthy meals, too. I'm always studying at school and when I don't pack a lunch I will buy quick unhealthy food. Thanks for your thoughts! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

The barrier I can relate to is how much cheaper unhealthy food is compared to healthy food. As a college student who isn't working I don't have the money to buy healthy groceries all the time. I am guilty of sometimes buying the cheaper/less healthy quick food option! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I love chia seeds! I love to add them to my smoothies and yogurt. I did know that chia seeds have high fiber that helps with digestive health. This article is very helpful and reassuring because I didn't know the multiple other benefits chia seeds have. Thanks! #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

Hi Skylar! I also have low Vitamin D, especially around this time when we are in the thick of school and can't get outside. I also take a Vitamin D supplement. Vitamin D can also play a role in mood regulation and help improve mood! Thanks for your thoughts! #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

I take a women's multi vitamin. I learned from the lecture that it can be used to help address nutritional gaps and that people will just take it to take it. However, they are expensive and do they really help? There are potential risks and a lack of strong evidence. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

I've heard many great things about the Mediterranean diet and its benefits. It's interesting to know that it specifically reduces risks of different types of cancers! Thanks!

Hi Monica! Great article. The bold text is very helpful for patients if they are glancing at it and want to read about something specifically. I also love the quick tips and the summary section! Thanks!

The popular press article I found is a NY Times article about how dinner should be your smallest meal. It was very insightful, easy to understand, and short. It was written by Alice Callahan who has a Ph.D in nutrition. It also has supporting info from doctors! #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

Hi! Wow I never new this about mangos that's very interesting! I've never really been a mango eater, however, I should add them to my diet. Learning that it could help with the risks of diabetes is good information as I have a relative who has diabetes! Thanks! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

Hey Skylar! I am guilty of trying a juice cleanse once. Maybe I did something wrong, however, I found no benefit. I agree it's definitely not a long term option as they lack essential nutrients that everyone needs in their diet! #beh253 @beh353.bsky.social

The fad diet I selected is the cabbage soup diet. It involves eating mostly cabbage soup and other limited foods for a week. Many people criticize this diet because the weight loss is mostly water not fat and it's not a long term weight loss option! 🍲 #beh253 @beh353.bsky.social

Hi! I love bananas especially right in the morning as they are so nutrient rich and give me a little bit of an energy boost. It is good to know they help with mood too! I add them to my yogurt bowls😆 @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

Hi Angelina! I love sandwiches and I also will try to swap out items to make them more nutrient dense! I have been doing veggie and humus wraps and they are SO GOOD. I also use avocado with my tuna instead of mayo and it tastes just as good! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

For breakfast I love eating yogurt bowls and cereal. To make these two meals more nutrient dense I always will add a variety of fruit. I will also add chia seeds, hemp hearts, granola and peanut butter to my yogurt! These add fiber, vitamins, and more to my meals. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353
