@CLBKrisN@beh353 Hi Kristian, I also agree that nutrition plays a significant role in recovering from injuries. I also find that having a sufficient diet is key in helping people heal through their injuries. #beh353@beh353
This week's article that I read talked about how a healthy diet can help hemophilia symptoms. It goes on to mention which foods you should incorporate in your diet and which foods to avoid if you have hemophilia. #beh353@beh353
As an aspiring healthcare worker who wants to work in psychiatry, it is essential to ensure that patients have a nutrious diet. It is important to know which foods will help people the most to help with certain disorders. Overall nutrition is important for all. #beh353@beh353
@AishHannahA@EmmaDArpinoRD@beh353 Hi Aishwarya, I was also surprised to learn how many illnesses the dieticians can help treat. I also thought the same in the sense that dieticians only helped with weight management. @beh353#beh353
This article discusses healthy vegetarian options people could include in their diet. The article talks about potential food options for all meals of the day as well as snack options. They also emphasize that a vegetarian diet is more than just eating salad. @beh353#beh353
Thank you @EmmaDArpinoRD so much for this week's lecture. I really enjoyed learning about myths that are associated with junk food. I also really enjoyed listening about food labeling as well as different alternatives to certain foods like milk. @beh353#beh353
@AOrovitz45438@beh353 Hi Alex I enjoyed reading your article and also agree that healthy eating is more than just counting calories and that there is a lot more that goes into creating a healthy meal for kids. #beh353@beh353
Carrots are very nutritious and have many health benefits. This article goes on to talk about healthy recipes that contain carrots as well as talking about the healthy nutritional value of them as well. #beh353@beh353
Carrot Chronicles: Elevate your plate, celebrate the harvest, and savor the wholesome goodness of Carrots. A root vegetable, usually orange, though purple, red, white, and yellow varieties are available. plus an excellent #InternationalCarrotDay https://t.co/faAIaoNefi
This week I chose an article that is an evidence-based guide to helping parents feed nutritious healthy food to their children. The article goes on to list various foods that can help kids maintain a healthy diet. The article is: https://t.co/h8TvO32SBT #beh353@beh353
@AishHannahA@beh353 Hi, Aishwarya I also think that sizeism bias is a problem that we struggle with in society today. The article opened my eyes to see how overweight patients are treated in healthcare. Hopefully in the future patients with obesity will be treated differently. @beh353#beh353
For this week I read this article that talked about whole grains in bread. I didn't realize that there were 3 different varieties of whole-grain stamps. Each stamp means that there is a different amount of whole grains in that food item. @beh353#beh353
Reading the article and watching this week's video was very eye-opening on how obesity is treated in healthcare. A fact that stood out to me is that on average unfit skinny people were twice as likely to get diabetes as fit fat people. @beh353#beh353
@seata_thapa@beh353 Hi Thapa, I also thought it was interesting to learn that diet soda is not as healthy as it seems. Most of the time people pick diet soda thinking that is often healthier than regular soda but that isn't always the case. #beh353@beh353
For this week's article, I was able to read if carbs are friends or foes for athletes. The article mentions common myths athletes think about and debunks those myths. It said that athletes who train hard should incorporate more carbs into their diet. #beh353@beh353
For #athletes who train hard for about an hour a day, the #carb goal is about 375 g/day, or about 90 g four meals/snacks per day to best fuel your muscles. A protein shake for bfast and a salad for lunch does not do the job...

A fact that stuck out to me this week is how leptin is related to obesity. Leptin increases people's hunger levels which contributes to obesity, unfortunately. People who often find themselves often hungry might need to seek help from a specialist. #beh353@beh353
@izzydasilva0104 @beh353 Hi Isabella you chose a really good article. I also thought that caffeine increases performance and even helps you do better. However, after reading the article it might seem that it might be a placebo effect. @beh353#beh353
The article I read was about foods that can help prevent cancer. The article mentions that fruits and veggies are good in helping prevent certain cancers however red means and alcohol should be reduced. It also says there is no food alone that can prevent cancer. @beh353#beh353
It's Cancer Prevention Month, and it's important for AICR to repeat this message: There's no single food that can protect against cancer. It's your whole diet that counts! Research shows: a variety of plant-based foods helps with prevention. Learn more: https://t.co/SR80jPuve9
One barrier I'll be discussing is the lack of time to plan healthy meals. I find it hard to plan healthy meals because I don't have enough time to plan and prepare the meals. I can try to fix this issue by making larger portions of food to save for other days. @beh353#beh353
@Seasiakong @beh353 Hi Seasia, I also learned that multivitamins are not FDA-approved which is really interesting to me. I also learned that consuming vitamins daily can also be bad if too many vitamins are consumed. @beh353#beh353
In this week's article, I learned that freshly chopped cabbage contains some calcium but is very nutrient-rich in potassium. This article shows the nutrition guide for cabbage and possible healthy meals that involve cabbage. @beh353#beh353
