I wanted to talk about this post as I think it would be beneficial if we brought more light about school lunches since kids typically eat what is offered to them and can't make healthier choices that we do @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I definitely agree with you on this - we should be considerate and mindful that certain food choices can't be made because not everything is accessible to everyone. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I plan on using my knowledge by being mindful of what recommendations I make to my patients, especially if I am providing an article for them to make sure it is evidence based. Also, informing patients about how to have balanced meals so they have proper nutrition. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

I wanted to share this post to the class as we are coming up on finals week and I feel like because of the high stress and timing, we may not have time to make meals but I feel like some of these recipes may be beneficial for those who are in similar situations. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

Hi Dhyani, I definitely understand you how we have to make sure we get all of our nutrients but can't stress about it when we are studying. I meal prep too and will definitely look into this recipe, thanks! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

Some foods I will be eating to fuel myself will be lots of nuts and fruit for snacks to keep myself full. I am also planning on meal prepping some rice, roasted vegetables, and air fry some salmon to eat throughout the week. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

I wanted to highlight this as we have been talking a lot lately in class about fat and we should try to promote more healthy behaviors rather than fat shaming someone in order for them to be healthy. We shouldn't be looking at how the body looks to determine health @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I like how this article is very easy to read but also very informative as it provides numbers such as how many cups is recommended to be consumed of certain categories. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

Top 20 Healthy Eating Habits, According to a Dietitian Small changes to your eating habits can have big results. Find out which healthy eating habits to start implementing without going to extremes.

I chose this article as it was easy to read but also very informative on what healthy eating habits there were. It also incorporated a lot of evidence-based information that were backed up by scientific articles that were cited within the article #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

For the longest time, I had the assumption that any salad is healthy. It was only until I started learning about the dressing, toppings, and amounts also matter. I wonder what type of dressing is the best since a lot are oil based, or what creamy dressing is healthy. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I agree, a lot of people may think dieting is just physical, but it is also a mental game. It is a lot on the mental mind when a lot of the choices we make are based on habit. Being able to find hidden gems and having a good support system is definitely necessary. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I think after reading Tom's story, one of the things that was important to highlight was the self-destructive behavior that was occurring which we had learned about in the previous weeks. He talked about how it was an on and off for him and it shows the struggles. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

As we are approaching finals in a couple weeks, it has definitely been a lot to keep up with how fast paced these weeks have been while preparing for the end of the semester. I feel like this post would be very beneficial for us so we can keep moving. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I definitely agree with this. Self-destructive behavior is highly associated with obesity and especially when people get fat shamed, it becomes worse. This is definitely something we should be more aware of and educate properly about. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I just learned about the difference between obesity and education where those who are not a high school graduate/high school graduate have a higher obesity rate than people with degrees. This is something that I would keep in mind as I can better inform my future patients @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I have been trying to find what I could change about my eating habits to feel better but also not feel hungry all the time while I am at school. Seeing this made me consider what I could incorporate more of into my day and meals. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I definitely agree with this, it's so hard when we have things to do as students and not enough time to prepare healthy meals for ourselves when we should be prioritizing our health above all. We tend to opt out for the most convenient option instead. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

One of the barriers that I can relate with is the lack of time for healthy foods. When I have big exams to prepare for, I try to prioritize my time on studying rather than prepping meals and tend to eat out more often on those weeks which are not the healthiest options. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

I think this post is beneficial in helping people in finding food products that are healthy to eat. A lot of food products don't contain many vitamins and have a lot of added sugars and saturated fat. It's good to keep in mind when trying to make healthier choices. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

I agree, sometimes taking vitamins or supplements that aren't necessary may not show or have any benefits in the end. These are the types where people may need to do some research to see if it will be beneficial for them in case there's a risks associated. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

I have been seeing Spirulina all over social media and when I researched about it, I learned about how it's a blue-green algae that is a very rich source for vitamins such as B1, B2, B3, etc. Lots of vitamins that are antioxidants and good for our overall health. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

I think this is very vital to discuss as we have been talking about various diets. Not every diet will work for everyone as there are many and there are so many diets that can result in various outcomes. I wonder what diet everyone should mostly avoid though. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

Hi, I definitely think including scientific evidence is vital when it comes to a popular press article that talks about nutrition or lifestyle changes. Sometimes, articles can be misleading but by providing evidence, it is more reassuring for patients to make decisions. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

Here’s how to eat to live longer, new study says | CNN A new study following nearly 120,000 people for 36 years found you have a lot of choice in what you eat to live longer if you stick to certain principles.

This resource is about what food patterns people could consume to decrease their chances of having an early death. I think this was a high quality article as a scientific study was discussed, and raw evidence was included to back up claims.

I thought this post was quite interesting as it makes me wonder if the color of food actually matters or not/has a significant difference on someone's nutrition. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

Hi! I have heard about the diet when it went popular a couple years ago. I have heard a lot of pros of the diet, but there are lots of cons as well. Due to high fat, it can also cause other health concerns. So it's quite interesting to see what diet suits someone best. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I learned a bit about the Atkins diet which I wasn't familiar with before. It's low-carb, high fat and protein, and promotes weight loss and reduce blood sugar. I wonder how sustainable this diet actually is and how long one has to stay on it until it is "unhealthy". @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I actually love snacking and think it is quite convenient when it comes to busy days at school and not enough time for a full meal until much later in the day. I have been trying to eat more yogurt and fruit lately. I wonder what type of snack keeps you the fullest? @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

Hi! I love eating ramen too, but it is definitely on the unhealthier side. Your substitutions and add-ons are definitely great for making it more nutrient dense and also delicious! You have the whole grains, vegetables, and protein. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I was craving a chicken parm pasta the other day, & I was thinking about how to make it more nutrient dense. I don't eat enough whole grains or enough protein so I made my meal with whole wheat pasta and plant-based chicken (I am a pescatarian) also low-fat cheese @beh353.bsky.social #beh353
