Meal kit of the month: lentil soup!
We took on the challenge of creating a healthy recipe using food pantry staples. Participants sampled the recipe and took a kit to make at home. It was a hit! #communitywellness #whatdietitiansdo #nutrition

Breastfeeding is not generally contraindicated for women undergoing medication assisted treatment. Women who used opioids were significantly less likely to breastfeed, had a significantly shorter duration of breastfeeding, and were more likely to face barriers to breastfeeding.

Nutrition research includes collaboration with other professionals—collaborate to get things done! #FNCE

[Madeleine Drees, MFN, RD @maddiedrees]

Culturally-relevant, individualized nutrition education is SO important. The US is increasingly diverse and RDs must be competent #FNCE

Many barriers to managing T1D faced by pts in East Africa are still relevant to this population living in the US #FNCE

[Madeleine Drees, MFN, RD @maddiedrees]

Lack of insulin, CHO-rich diet, stigma of chronic disease...just a few of the barriers for T1D pts in East African population #FNCE

[Madeleine Drees, MFN, RD @maddiedrees]

Increased food access means more choices and more confusion about nutrition. People want accurate and useful info, and RDs can help. #FNCE

[Madeleine Drees, MFN, RD @maddiedrees]

Learning to use hand gestures and body language to communicate with confidence and credibility #FNCE

Cauliflower curry was a hit at the Lucas County Health Fair! Favorite quote: “That table has protein without meat!” #plantbased #rd2b

Supplements should be used only if a patient absolutely cannot get enough nutrients from food. First option should be diet change! #FN4800

[Madeleine Drees, MFN, RD @maddiedrees]

Sometimes nutrient supplementation is necessary or strongly encouraged, such as in iron-deficiency anemia and pregnancy. #FN4800

[Madeleine Drees, MFN, RD @maddiedrees]

The NIH has a list of warnings and recalls about supplements. https://t.co/9PITN4Am5e Look up research studies too! #FN4800

[Madeleine Drees, MFN, RD @maddiedrees]

In order to show people that supplements are not a great option, we need to be familiar with the specific reasons why they aren't! #FN4800 https://t.co/blfYsZsCJ9

[Madeleine Drees, MFN, RD @maddiedrees]

True! And we have the science background that can help patients understand the risks of taking the supplement. #FN4800 https://t.co/AtNczwYL1u

[Emma Grupenhoff @emma_grupenhoff]

RDs r responsible 4 knowing current FN trends. If we can't tell patients about supplement info we can't recommend them in good faith #FN4800
