@BEH353_Brynn @beh353 Optometrists teach patients nutrition+ refer to RDs as there're side effects harmful to the eye. Dr. Muller in "The sense+ nonsense of vitamins" explains lack of vitA can cause blindness. Caught early it can be restored, extra has no affect+ too much is toxic @beh353 #beh353

@SamMontalto2 @beh353 I recommend both nutrition management and lifestyle adjustments to help w/ health issues. Nutritional check-ins are important for a holistic understanding of an individual in addition w/ better guidance through providing credible, helpful resources @beh353 #beh353

@CausicaaC @beh353 I loved learning through this course that some schools are incorporating school breakfast as it helps with learning, adds more meals for kids,+ makes low socioeconomic kids feel less excluded for being the only ones w/ school breakfast. I also enjoy this article @beh353 #beh353

[Faith Walmsley @Faithfullfittt]

Nutrition can be used as medicine+ prevent disease! It promotes health+ growth. We benefit our health by reading product labels+ understanding ingredients being consumed. I will lead through ex+ collaborate closely w/ RDs to provide patients w/ reliable resources #beh353 @beh353

Farm to preschool allows kids in early ed to build healthy relationships w/ food by trying new foods, gaining knowledge+ improving nutrition through fun activities. They learn their favorite produce, not just the ones they are fed @beh353 @beh353

[Faith Walmsley @Faithfullfittt]

A great resource on how to build healthy food relationships that allow kids to enjoy food through listening to their body about what it needs+ when. Kids have a stronger ability to pay attention to our body's signals regarding food intake #learnyoung #beh353 @beh353

@ShreyaDholakia2 @beh353 A health halo surrounds fresh produce making some pick convenient, affordable, shelf-stable unhealthy choices like chips instead of produce+ neglect shelf-stable produce that sometimes can be better+ a step towards retaining the necessary nutrients from produce @beh353 #beh353

@AseelBEH353 @annekit3 @EmmaDArpinoRD @beh353 Words definitely matter, there is no science that supports its addiction. The same area of the brain lights up on CT scans as its a pleasure center. You may feel addicted but its not. Addiction+ feeling out of control w/ food choices are not a parallel comparison @beh353 #beh353

[Faith Walmsley @Faithfullfittt]

@AnthonyDeMarc07 @EmmaDArpinoRD @beh353 Everyone has their specialty, RD's specialize in nutrition. Its important for RD's to educate others on evidence/ factual based nutrition information. As Professor said most believe "If some is good, more must be better." But, in most cases its just a waste of $$ @beh353 #beh353

[Faith Walmsley @Faithfullfittt]

Imagine if milk alternatives were called Soy, Almond, Rice, Coconut, Hemp juice? @EmmaDArpinoRD taught me that soy milk is the best alternative through this comparison chart. Almond milk lacks protein + most calcium is fortified @beh353 #beh353

[Faith Walmsley @Faithfullfittt]

TY @EmmaDArpinoRD for sharing your work experiences + clarifying information to educate others. A healthy relationship w/ food limits overindulgence. There is no good/ bad food. Understand what nutrients are coming from chosen foods+ what portion of each you need @beh353 #beh353

[Faith Walmsley @Faithfullfittt]

@Ashjez29 @beh353 Wow, a powerful resource including materials for a better understanding of obesity + prevention. Kids dont understand the health effects of obesity. This includes materials like apps to help educate children on healthy foods + make good healthy lifestyle choices. @beh353 #beh353

[Faith Walmsley @Faithfullfittt]

@then_katherine @beh353 I enjoy this article as intermittent fasting is a very common diet trend that many may have never been informed of potential side effects. This article is credible + easy to read @beh353 #beh353

[Faith Walmsley @Faithfullfittt]

Great source including materials for meal planning, shopping, + budgeting to save money + prioritize nutrient-dense healthy foods. Includes charts to stay organized + on track w/ goals @beh353 #beh353

Provides an accessible guide on how to credit nutritional needs including fruits, vegetables, milk, + meat/meat alternatives + include them in children's meal pattern criteria. @beh353 #beh353

@ShreyaDholakia2 @beh353 This article is evidence-based + highlights the most crucial information. I like how it includes portion sizes of nutrient-dense foods for specific ages + genders. It allows the parent to better understand if their child is overeating or listening to their body @beh353 #beh353

[Faith Walmsley @Faithfullfittt]

Just found the treasure box for new meal ideas🪙 Allows an individual to specify breakfast, lunch, dinner, food group, + season. In addition, you can select kid-friendly + 30 minutes or less! @beh353 #beh353 https://t.co/yZ9eAbgbxL
