follow along as I tweet my way through Nutrition and Health @MCPHS :)

Health Psych ‘23, DPT ‘25. Genuine interest! I want to know the truth about carbs! They can’t really be the devil they’re made out to be. Healthy eating = mindfulness. Avocado toast is my go-to breakfast ALWAYS 🥑🤪 @beh353 #beh353

This article sums up a book about using food as medicine. It’s a topic that is a bit controversial/taboo, but I find it quite interesting, you might too! @beh353 #beh353

Weekend reading: Food as Medicine https://t.co/2WVO61EifZ

@sarahs_eats @beh353 Sarah, totally agree. This class really prepared me for how I should address nutrition with future patients! @beh353 #beh353

[Sarah Jesmain @Jesmain_BEH353]

@MMansour0808 @beh353 Michael, you summed it up perfectly. The Popular Press Assignment in particular taught me a lot about how to find the right information for patients! @beh353 #beh353

[Sarah Jesmain @Jesmain_BEH353]

Thank you, Professor Kennedy!!

[Sarah Jesmain @Jesmain_BEH353]

After taking @beh353 I know that I should meet my nearby RDs and connect patients with them. I learned how to find reliable, easy-to-read sources for patients, and I can put my patients at ease by telling them there is no perfect diet & moderation is key! #beh353

@AkermanRochelle @beh353 Rochelle, this is so cool! I am so indecisive in the grocery store and sometimes I pick more unhealthy items. This app will definitely help me focus on nutrition! @beh353 #beh353

[Rochelle Akerman @AkermanRochelle]

How cool is this app!? I've always worried about whether I'm buying the most nutritious options, but now I can use this app to alleviate my concerns! Also think about how great this could be for children to mess around with/learn about nutritious food options! @beh353 #beh353

@Haley_Shaw13 @EmmaDArpinoRD @beh353 Haley, this was exciting for me to learn too! I’m looking forward to meeting and working with RDs and other healthcare professionals in the future @beh353 #beh353

[Sarah Jesmain @Jesmain_BEH353]

@BrookeTaylor_xo @EmmaDArpinoRD @beh353 I learned this prior to this lecture and I really did go buy an orange the last time I was sick 😂 it works! @beh353 #beh353

[Sarah Jesmain @Jesmain_BEH353]

@EmmaDArpinoRD thank you for your wonderful lecture! I love how you said healthcare providers will make mistakes and that they need to own them in order to move on and make less mistakes down the road. I’ll remember that and give myself grace when that time comes @beh353 #beh353

[Sarah @sarahs_eats]

Growing a garden and having your children help when they are young, can help them get excited about eating fruits and vegetables (which I know for sure most kids hate)! #beh353 @beh353

[Sarah Jesmain @Jesmain_BEH353]

This thread was so informative!! As someone who has dreamt of one day having a small farm, I was fascinated to learn about pigs and how they are more sustainable to eat than cows! 🐷🥓> 🐮🍔 @beh353 #beh353

[Tamar Haspel @TamarHaspel]

Everyone's talking about COWS but this morning I am thinking about PIGS and how great they are.

If we want to feed people meat, responsibly, pigs are the GO-TO livestock.

There are 6 reasons why and here they are:

@Radhika0823 @beh353 This sounds so yummy! I’ve always been a fan of trail mix, but I never thought to add butter and brown sugar to make it even more of a treat 🤩 @beh353 #beh353

[Sarah Jesmain @Jesmain_BEH353]

I chose this article as I hope to work with geriatric patients as a future PT. I realize the important connection between body and mind. This article is from a reputable organization and is easy to read @beh353 #beh353 https://t.co/Dleg4gaCvl

[Sarah Jesmain @Jesmain_BEH353]

This quiz was so fun! I’m surprised I got 9/10 right. I love that it encourages kids to learn about gardening and eating healthy homegrown foods. I wish my school had a garden and I could have had fresh foods in every meal! @beh353 #beh353

[Sarah Jesmain @Jesmain_BEH353]

@_alyssachen_ @beh353 I’m stoked to find out red pepper aides in digestion! 🌶🔥@beh353 #beh353

[Sarah Jesmain @Jesmain_BEH353]

@PrachiP613 @beh353 One way for healthcare providers to be accepting patients in all sizes is to ditch the scale! I strongly believe that doctors should only weigh patients if they ask to be weighed, or if their weight is essential information @beh353 #beh353

[Sarah Jesmain @Jesmain_BEH353]

Samantha Bee says some “fat” people exercise 5x/wk & others don’t exercise at all, just like some thin people. As a future DPT, I won’t underestimate the exercise overweight patients can do. I’ll remember that body fat isn’t directly proportional to health! @beh353 #beh353
