"This study’s findings suggest that nutritional support in hospitalized patients who are malnourished or at nutritional risk is associated with improved nutritional and clinical outcomes and should be considered when treating this population." #acutecare#malnutrition
I’m @ the @VicHealth Roundtable on Childhood Obesity Prevention.
The Hon. @JennyMikakos wants us to bring BOLD NEW IDEAS to the table, via #VicHealth’s new CEO @SandroDemaio that are:
Impactful
Feasible
Affordable
What would you like to see happen in the space? What’s working OS?
@aliceinframes@SandroDemaio@VicHealth @JennyMikakos Greater funding for community gardens - a great initiative to promote healthy eating and active living for all 🥬🥦🍓 My local community garden has a 2+ year wait list, but lack of funding is inhibiting this wonderful program to expand 💰👎
Reducing processed foods also reduces single use plastic and improves nutrition for children -Dr Sandro Demaio CEO @VicHealth adding to the panel discussion in #WorldFoodDay with @DeakinNutrition@DeakinIPAN
With malnutrition now being a triple burden (stunting/wasting, micronutrient deficiencies and overnutrition) action is needed to address this complex issue. Improving food systems is a key starting point @SandroDemaio@DeakinIPAN@DeakinNutrition
The world is failing millions of children.
It's time to put young people at the centre of #foodsystems, and design #food environments that empower kids — not confuse, coerce or harm them!
We can do better, and we must.

Fascinating insights shared from tonight's launch of the @UNICEF 'Reshaping the food system for children & adolescents'. Thanks for hosting @DeakinIPAN@DeakinNutrition on #WorldFoodDay
What a day coordinating the @DAA_feed stall at the Melbourne Gluten Free expo yesterday. It's always a pleasure representing DAA and spreading the word that APDs are the go-to leaders in #nutrition 😊
Great to spend last night celebrating #DietitiansDay at the Vic EDC social evening. Delicious food and insightful career journeys were shared throughout the night. @DAA_feed
Such a hectic but exciting past week at @MonashHealth with the roll out of Electronic Medical Records (EMR)💻 These EMR-gency treats on standby by in the #dietetics department certainly helped get us through!
#VLCD elicits most #weightloss in #NAFLD participants but this is not sustained and can lead to loss of lean muscle mass and bone mineral density. #exercise prescription for NAFLD not established. Great presentation by Dr Shelley Keating @UQHealth @DAA_feed #DAA2019
And that’s a wrap from our @nutsocaus Good for Food event! So important to support social enterprises that are improving access to healthy foods. Thanks to everyone for coming along! @TheCommGrocer @Rebecca_L_L @Katmlivingstone @catherine_milte #foodforgood
Congratulations to all student and supervisor award recipients tonight 🎉 It’s great to see such a big turn out to celebrate Deakin’s partners and awards ceremony 🤓 #dietetics#nutrition@Deakin#brightfutures
