Learning about bias against people with obesity reminded me how important respect is in healthcare. As a future provider, I’ll focus on helping patients feel supported, not judged, so they can reach their health goals. Everyone deserves care without bias. @beh353#beh353
One fact I didn't know: Studies show that shaming people about their weight actually increases their risk of weight gain and mental health issues. Instead of judgment, support and empathy promote healthier behaviors. #beh353@beh353

@LoriShemek Wow, that's shocking, and gets you caught off guard of how crazy to think that even 'healthy' foods can be so loaded with sugar. I definitely need to start paying closer attention to labels. Thanks for the eye opener! #beh353@beh353

@scottyyuen @beh353 That's a great and healthy swap especially the Oikos triple zero has protein which keeps you full longer. The night time cravings are always so tough to deal with. #beh353@beh353
To make my morning smoothie more nutrient-dense, I swapped out regular yogurt for Greek yogurt (more protein) and added spinach and chia seeds for extra fiber, iron, and omega-3s. Small changes like this can make a big difference! #beh353@beh353

@FoodInsight This is very important to know because most people think frozen vegetables aren't as good for you as unfrozen vegetables are. This is a great thing to know about! #beh353@beh353
@carolin9306010@beh353 This is news to me, I'm glad you mentioned this. Society gives us the wrong idea of very healthy meals being "good" for your bodies especially athletes.
When going through nutrition articles, it's crucial to be skeptical of claims that appear overly promising, as they’re often not reliable. In most cases, this information lacks a true source and can be misleading. #beh353@beh353
