While my final tweet was based on educating my future patients on how their dietary choices can directly impact their health, I do think that balance is key, and enjoying a grilled cheese every once in a while will not significantly negatively impact your health.

@tinaamarz55 @beh353 Hi Santina! My final thoughts were similar to yours! I believe that dietary choices can directly impact our health outcomes, particularly in preventing and managing chronic diseases.

[Deva Batarseh @DevaBatarseh113]

I'm dedicated to incorporating nutritional guidance as a fundamental part of my future practice. I'll work to educate my patients on how their dietary choices can directly impact their health outcomes, particularly in preventing and managing chronic diseases @beh353 #beh353.

Starting healthy eating habits early can be a crucial step in combating child obesity. Using engaging tools like games and MyPlate materials makes learning about nutrition fun and accessible for kids.

[Nutrition.gov @Nutrition_gov]

Healthy eating habits start at a young age. Teach kids about healthy eating with games, coloring books, and MyPlate materials found on https://t.co/hSBiEmCrT6’s “Children” webpage. https://t.co/NfaC2YqtxM

@nakuci43627 @EmmaDArpinoRD @beh353 Hi Emma! I think that myths around "junk food" provided a refreshing perspective. It’s crucial to approach nutrition without judgment and with empathy in healthcare. Her insights were very valuable!

[Deva Batarseh @DevaBatarseh113]

@EmmaDArpinoRD I learned a lot from your discussion on the role of dietitians in healthcare teams. It was eye-opening to see how closely you work with pharmacists and nurses to manage patient nutrition. Thanks for sharing your expertise! @beh353 #beh353.

I thought this article was pretty interesting. It highlights the importance of evenly distributing protein intake throughout the day for optimal muscle building and maintenance in teen athletes!

@Samanthabr419 @beh353 Hi Samantha! I agree that this article is easy to read! I didn't know that regular family meals not only encourage healthier eating in children but also decrease the likelihood of them engaging in unhealthy behaviors like drinking and smoking!

I chose this article because it is evidence-based, clear, and easy to understand, making it accessible to all parents. Additionally, the Mayo Clinic has a great reputation and that adds a layer of trust and reliability to the information presented.

As a future healthcare provider, it is crucial to recognize cultural food and understand that traditional dishes might not always be healthy. However, this article shows how to adapt classic Italian cuisine for better health while respecting cultural tastes.

Healthier Twists on Classic Italian Cuisine. Love Italian cuisine but aiming for healthier eating? Good news! With a focus on fresh ingredients, you can make healthier swaps in classic dishes without losing the rich flavors. #OurMobb https://t.co/osdfYZWSEc

@Evatu23 @beh353 I agree that we should all consider genetic, environmental, and socioeconomic factors in our understanding of obesity! This approach will undoubtedly lead to more empathetic patient care.

[Deva Batarseh @DevaBatarseh113]

I was shocked to see how clinician bias against obesity deeply impacts individuals. As a future provider, understanding these biases will help me offer empathetic care to patients struggling with their weight, focusing not solely on size, but on overall well-being @beh353 #beh353

[Deva Batarseh @DevaBatarseh113]

I wanted to share this article because it highlights the importance of tailored nutritional meals, a concept we talked about when discussing diverse causes and treatments of obesity in both adults and children.

[Deva Batarseh @DevaBatarseh113]

@Evatu23 @beh353 It's truly astonishing how a single gene like the Leptin gene can have such a big impact on our body's regulation of appetite and metabolism leading to obesity because there really isn't any way to stop it.

I used to often order diet soft drinks because they are less calories but this week learning that diet soft drinks are associated with higher average BMI's compared to regular soft drinks really shocked me. I will now be ordering regular soft drinks @beh353 #beh353.

I think this is a great initiative for introducing young kids to a healthy diet. This will set a strong foundation for children's future dietary choices. Lower sugar and sodium in meals is a big advancement in health.

[USDA Food and Nutrition @USDA_FNA]

School meals should be healthy AND delicious! Food manufacturers @Cargill, @GeneralMills and Bongard are working to modernize nutritious options. During a recent visit, FNS officials reviewed new prospective menu items that include lower sugar and sodium.

[Deva Batarseh @DevaBatarseh113]

@tinaamarz55 @beh353 Hi Santina! I completely agree with this, I also find it to be hard to eat healthier. What also makes its hard to eat healthy is how accessible fast food is. I think it's smart that you try to find good deals/savings. I should try doing that too!

[Deva Batarseh @DevaBatarseh113]

I often find it difficult to decide between pricey healthy foods and less expensive unhealthy ones. On a limited budget, I'm tempted to choose a $5 burger over a $15 salad, making it difficult to maintain a healthy diet without overspending @beh353 #beh353.

@nakuci43627 @beh353 Hi Emma! This article was so interesting to read! I also didn't know that you're supposed to take melatonin a couple hours before bed. Melatonin brands usually advertise their clients to take it 30 minutes before bed!
