Proud to be among 250 attendees from nearly 40 states and D.C. attending Food is Medicine Advocacy Day 2026 on Capitol Hill. We’re spending the day educating Congress on Food is Medicine (FIM) in healthcare, including Medically Tailored Meals, Medically Tailored Groceries, Produce Prescriptions, nutrition research and nutrition education.

The Advocacy Day reflects the spectrum of multi-sector enthusiasm and support for Food is Medicine - participants include patients and participants in FIM programs; physicians; registered dietitians; non-profit and for-profit providers of medically tailored meals, medically tailored groceries, and produce prescriptions; community organizations implementing FIM programs; food banks; healthcare systems; life insurers; researchers; farmers, and more, with experience in all facets of FIM.

The Food is Medicine Advocacy Day was organized by Tufts Food is Medicine Institute (@tufts_fimi) at Tufts University with the following collaborators: Pennington Biomedical Research Center (@PBRCNews), American Heart Association (@American_Heart), Instacart (@Instacart), John Hancock (@johnhancockusa), National Produce Prescription Collaborative (@NPPC_USA), Appalachian Refional Health, Capital Area Food Bank, Food is Medicine Coalition and the National Association of Community Health Centers #foodismedicine #lalege #Lagov #LSU

Myles Garrett is just a 1/2 sack behind TJ Watt & Micheal Strahan for the record.

MYLES GARRETT has been on the field for 437 pass plays, Strahan was on the field for 567 plays the year he set the record.

Watt for 618 plays when he tied it.

It's not even close!!

@DoctorTro Free Fatty Acids increase, unless 2 other things are true:

The person going on keto 1) starts with elevated FFAs & 2) loses weight.

Independently, keto always induces insulin resistance & glucose intolerance.

There are benefits, but they're in the context of that physiology.

[Jake Mey, PhD, RD @CakeNutrition]

The best way to experimentally CREATE insulin resistance in healthy people is to infuse fats into the body.

Its called "lipid-induced insulin resistance."

Its a classic method, because it works, always.

Even in my ketogenic work, I use it. https://t.co/MhLkcYwr9a

[Sunny Day @LookingAtYouM8]

@BioLayne 100% false. Dietary fat does not cause insulin resistance. In fact, fat barely triggers insulin secretion at all.

Carbs trigger insulin and cause IR.

You haven't a clue what you're talking about. Isn't it time you sat down?

I check c-peptide fairly frequently to help discriminate diabetes sub-types (T1d/LADA/T2d), understand where people are in the evolution of T1D, or help predict remission from t2d prior to intensive lifestyle or bariatric surgery. Here is a study showing clearly that patients with T1D that have residual beta-cell function (be c-peptide measurements) tend to achieve better glycemic targets (higher time in range, lower time below range, better A1c) while others with less beta-cell function have a hard time doing so. Not all patients with T1D are the same. https://t.co/xjUtf7FojO
