@EPhamnguyen @beh353 Emily this article is amazing so easy for a child’s parent to follow and it goes right into the basics on healthy eating for children and adolescents. @beh353 #beh353

@DrDavidKatz Agreed nutrition and health care go hand in hand so why haven’t they been intergraded yet? Nutrition directly affects patients and what they consume can tell you a lot about their health status. @beh353 #beh353

@nidhipate22 @beh353 Obesity can affect a patients overall health and is a risk factor for many medical conditions and disease so it’s very important to be able to guide patients in the right directions to manage and handle their weight loss. #beh353

@DrDavidKatz Heart rate, physical ability, and exercise will help determine how fit/healthy you are. Some people need to realize the scale isn’t the best way to determine how healthy you are. #beh353

Understanding that patients will struggle with managing their weight is vital because being able to manage these patients with respect and care like everyone else is important. Encouragement is key when trying to help patients managing their weight. @beh353 #beh353

@DrDavidKatz Interesting to see that the lowest rates of brain and heart disease are among the indigenous people residing in the Amazon. Absolutely amazing to see how these indigenous tribes are living their day to day life. #beh353 @beh353

For clues to healthy brain aging, look to the Bolivian Amazon https://t.co/jpk2yWihDk

One fact that really stuck out to me that I didn’t know before is how most obese people will not become a normal weight ever again and this is due to weight management programs being ineffective. The study on this topic was surprising to me and unheard of. @beh353 #beh353

@AniOurfalian @beh353 Screen time is ruining these kids not only is it bad for them but it’s also keeping more kids inside on the couch rather than outside playing getting fresh air and exercise. #beh353 @beh353

@Ellie_Krieger Not only does this milkshake look good but it is also healthy as well which could be used as an ice cream alternative and or could be used to fix a sweet tooth. #beh353

[Ellie Krieger @Ellie_Krieger]

This milkshake-like 3 ingredient PB & #banana smoothie is nourishing & perfectly sweet thanks to the very ripe frozen banana blended into it —no added sugar needed. https://t.co/w7InsAKT7a #smoothie #peanutbutter #protein #breakfast #quickbreakfast #easyrecipe

@PAalexysf @beh353 I get this because it happens to me all the time. There will be times I’m not hungry and I will see my friend eating Oreos and suddenly I will want Oreos. #beh353

[Alexis Demetri @DemetriAlexis]

A barrier to healthy eating that was cited in Table three that I struggle with is lack of time to plan, shop, prepare and cook healthy foods. As a college student I never have time to go grocery shopping or cook meals due to class, clinicals, and work. @beh353 #beh353

@G_stordalen @Dmozaffarian @RockefellerFdn @FoodisMedMA @EATforum The United States may be progressing on the food is medicine topic but we still have a long way to go as so many foods that we allow Americans to eat aren’t even aloud in other countries. #beh353 @beh353

@EPhamnguyen @beh353 I take a multivitamin gummy everyday, and although I don’t feel the affects of the vitamins internally I know that it’s helping improve numerous deficiencies throughout my body.

[Alexis Demetri @DemetriAlexis]

https://t.co/BZvbleSHpT My vision has significantly declined in the last couple years and getting a new eye prescription has helped but with the help of vitamins listed in this article I will help restore and improve my vision using vitamins A, B, C, and E. #beh353 @beh353
