Brain fog is so common especially with college students due to lack of sleep and overworking themselves. Although more research needs to be done on brain fog, this article lists some great foods that may "combat" these symptoms! @beh353 #beh353

[Vegetarian Times @VegTimes]

There's still a lot we don't know about brain fog, but research suggests these foods and vitamins might help https://t.co/nTJ0nNkBz7

@GandhamSrinath @beh353 That sounds great! I am still in shock that lack of sleep leads to obesity. I am so glad we learned that in this class because I feel like this is not as well known as it should be! @beh353 #beh353

[Breanna @BreMancuso29]

I've learned a lot of useful information from this class. As a future PA I am looking forward to applying everything I have learned. Such as the fact that eating right is extremely important for your health and carbs are not evil, like most people think!! @beh353 #beh353

[Breanna @BreMancuso29]

@EmmaDArpinoRD Thank you so much for your insight this week! I really loved when you spoke about Vitamin C. I take Emergen-C frequently, not realizing that my body does not absorb the full 1,000mg. Simply just eating an orange is a better and cheaper alternative! @beh353 #beh353

Sourdough is my favorite bread. In this article it states that sourdough is linked to improving gut health & decreases the impact on blood sugar levels which I never knew! It also mentions avoiding "imposters" from the grocery store. Local bakeries are best! @beh353 #beh353

@Samantha0439339 @EmmaDArpinoRD I honestly loved hearing this as well in the video! Sometimes I try to satisfy my "bad cravings" with a "good" one that's similar and it never satisfies me. Now ill never feel guilty for ever having my "bad" cravings! @beh353 #beh353

[Breanna @BreMancuso29]

I enjoyed reading this article because I always wondered the same. I love lemon water and I am happy to see it hold up its "hype" and benefits. @beh353 #beh353

[Vegetarian Times @VegTimes]

Seems like every celeb claims to start the day with a glass of lemon water. But is this trend really healthy – or all hype? https://t.co/SsTsZYJQ4v

[Breanna @BreMancuso29]

It also discusses special nutrition, calories and links other specific articles for further questions. @beh353 #beh353

[Breanna @BreMancuso29]

I would recommend this article to a pregnant patient of mine. Pregnancy is a very special time & eating correctly is extremely important. This article discusses foods to eat and foods to stay away from.@beh353 #beh353

@SuAhShin_ @beh353 Hi! This is actually a really good article. A couple of weeks ago we talked about how hard it is being a college student and maintaining a healthy diet. This article breaks up how to eat healthy cheap and effectively! @beh353 #beh353

[Breanna @BreMancuso29]

Cucumbers and dip are one of my favorite quick snacks. I also enjoy putting cream cheese and everything bagel seasoning on them. A quick healthy snack you cant go wrong with! #beh353 @beh353

@BriannaLocke8 @beh353 This is so true Brianna! Like I mentioned in my tweet, you never know what is going on in someones life, so its never okay to judge. @beh353 #beh353

[Breanna @BreMancuso29]

This is sad to me bc you never know what is going on in someones life. "You cannot know a persons health based on looking at them." Which is true. As a future medical provider I will never make someone feel uncomfortable & I will always do the best I can to help. @beh353 #beh353

[Breanna @BreMancuso29]

One thing mentioned in the video that really stuck with me was the example they used of Rebecca, where doctors neglected her medically due to her weight, and that "her size was leading to her health conditions" when in reality she had cancer. @beh353 #beh353 (continued)..

[Breanna @BreMancuso29]

This is a great read. The first point mentions to let a child go through a cook book & pick something they'd like to try. Exploration would definitely help spark some creativity with fruits & veggies & might ease the thought of them being unpleasant. @beh353 #beh353

@Apatel247 @beh353 Hi Ayana! I actually didn't know this either. I knew lack of sleep contributed to other health conditions, but it contributing to obesity was definitely new to me. A good sleep schedule is definitely important! @beh353 #beh353

[Breanna @BreMancuso29]

Causes of obesity include, health conditions, social pressures & childhood obesity was especially prevalent in lower income families. As a surprise to me, lack of sleep was also a cause. @beh353 #beh353

[Breanna @BreMancuso29]

"It is proven that fat-shaming only does one thing, it makes people feel ashamed, causing many mental health issues". After this weeks power-point I learned that some people cannot control obesity and its not okay to judge someone @beh353 #beh353 continued....

[Breanna @BreMancuso29]

@MMansour0808 @beh353 I definitely understand this! Fast food is always so convenient especially when hanging out with friends. I work in a sports bar so my coworkers also do not help me eat healthy, its always burgers or wings haha @beh353 #beh353

[Breanna @BreMancuso29]

Whenever I know I'm not going to eat certain meats or other foods right away, I freeze them, so chart is super helpful to look at. Its great to know when certain foods go bad in the freezer. It can help eliminate a very unpleasant sickness. @beh353 #beh353
