@Tiffanydo2002@beh353 Hi Tiffany! I think having a positive mindset towards food plays a big role in everyday life. We're trained to think that all sugar, fats, carbs, etc. is bad, but in fact that's not true. The first step towards a positive mindset is education! @beh353#beh353
I made this yesterday and it was yummy! I was looking for a “summery” salad and this was perfect. It felt light and I didn’t feel too full afterward. I highly recommend this!! @beh353#beh353
When I feel stressed out, yoga plays a big part in making me feel grounded again. I would 10/10 recommend doing yoga everyday, especially when you’re stressed out! @beh353#beh353
Nutrition is a big part of the medical field & everyday life. I feel prepared to share with OB patients how important nutrition is during pregnancy and what foods can help! As for myself, I feel like I’ve gotten some good recipes and tips on how to eat healthier! @beh353#beh353
@A_brown_8@EmmaDArpinoRD@beh353 I agree! This was awesome to hear! I know so many people who frown upon every single processed food and it’s comforting to know that some of them are okay. @beh353#beh353
Thank you @EmmaDArpinoRD for your insight!! It was so interesting to learn about how the same part of your brain lights up with food and drug addiction on a CT scan! Never in a million years would I have ever thought that to be true. Thank you again! @beh353#beh353
@SDela_22@beh353 Hi Shanell! This was so interesting! I’ve heard before that things like juice and soda can really influence the development of certain diseases. I think you’ve touched on a really great point that I’ll carry with me in the future, especially when I have children! @beh353#beh353
This article had some really good points about children developing a good relationship with food. It’s important to teach children about the benefits and risks, but allowing them to make their own decisions about what feels right to them. @beh353#beh353 https://t.co/tPu259VTRK
I thought this article had some great tips for Type 2 Diabetics and just healthy tips in general! I really like how it breaks down the reasoning for limiting certain foods! I will definitely share this with my grandpa who is a type 2 diabetic! @beh353#beh353
I can’t believe that an OBGYN doesn’t accept patients over 200lbs. I will never turn away a patient because of their weight, nor would I let a family member go somewhere that doesn’t care for those who are overweight. @beh353#beh353
I LOVE this article!! I’m so guilty of not sticking to my list and I love her tip about eating before you go to the store and listening to upbeat music. I will DEFINITELY be employing these tactics during my next trip to the store! @beh353#beh353
What does listening to Beyoncé have to do with saving money at the supermarket? Let chef and food waste reduction activist Nik Fields explain. https://t.co/bHYPYk32FG
@KP3819@beh353 It made me really sad when I realized how poorly some healthcare providers treat or don’t treat patients who are overweight. We’re all human and we deserve to be treated with respect regardless of the number on the scale. @beh353#beh353
As someone who used to struggle with acne, this article is super helpful! I never knew that pineapple was an anti-inflammatory food! There are some other good suggestions like turmeric & extra virgin olive oil! They’re easier to incorporate into your diet! @beh353#beh353
@BriannaLocke8@beh353 I was shocked to see the link between child obesity and poverty. I took a class last semester about food and it talked about child obesity, but never the link between the two! The rising costs of food definitely don’t make it easy for people to eat healthier! @beh353#beh353
I was surprised to learn how much sleep affects your weight. It’s hard for me to regulate my sleep & it’s something that I’ve been working on because I often feel like I’m “lagging” throughout the day. I’ll definitely be more aware of my body after learning this! @beh353#beh353
@YouvinAnn@beh353 I’ve also found that eating with friends influences me to eat unhealthy. Usually we’re out and about doing things, so quick options are a go to. My friends recently got me into gardening, so I’ll be implementing healthy changes in my diet! @beh353#beh353
This article was so interesting! I was always told that taking your vitamins in the morning on an empty stomach is best for optimal absorption, but that’s not the case! Fat soluble vitamins are better absorbed during meals! @beh353#beh353
I relate to lack of time to plan, shop and cook healthy meals. I’m in clinical 4 days a week, classes on Monday, and working on the weekends. I’ve found it to be really hard to find the time and energy to do those things when I have so much on my plate. @beh353#beh353
This is a photo of the airborne gummies I take when I’m feeling under the weather. I was shocked to see the amount of vitamin C that’s in 3 gummies! It seems like an overload for your system! @beh353#beh353
I love avocados! Another thing that I’ve started using to add some mono saturated fats to my diet is avocado oil! It makes my vegetables taste so much better! @beh353#beh353
Contrary to popular belief, not all fat is bad fat. There is good fat! That avocado that you ate on your toast this morning is a great source of monounsaturated fat, helping you combat the risk of developing heart disease!
