@FFS_WhatNow @jk_rowling How can a gay man be so anti trans? 😂 what a shambles

@BDA_Dietitians I’m deeply disappointed by the long delay in responses from the BDA to emails despite constantly raising fees to be a member. But alas, here we are.

@timricketts_ “Can I finish speaking to the patient before you interrupt me for your conversation?”

@gracehollinrake Was it not working, or was it not tolerated/accepted as well as diluted apple juice? Not sure how diluted apple juice would be more effective other than in a taste sense, as undiluted prune juice would have more sorbitol (I assume)

[Alex Tolson @tolsonalexander]

@gracehollinrake I’ve heard of people using fruit juice for constipation before, and general recommendations are to dilute fruit juices for children under 5. So perhaps some kind of combination of the two is what somebody has come to?

@Kerry_Dietitian I’m 4 weeks into my band 5 role straight after graduating and I’m only seeing 3, maybe 4 at a push, per day. My C placement was completely electronic, and now I’m completely paper based which threw me. You’re not alone at all ☺️

@Suffragentleman @Toadsanime @Nigel_Farage And you have a cartoon as your profile image. I fail to see the relevance of either of our points, but here we are.

@sgs2999 @R_Seshat @JeremyClarkson In all due respect, you came to “bang your head against the proverbial” on your own accord. Was this tweet about people in their 50/60s? I bet you say “all lives matter” as well don’t you.

@meganhughes91 I used to be a hairdresser, so every time I spoke to someone I got something like “oh good, I need one of those”. Now that I study dietetics it’s “oh, I could do with a dietitian” 🙄. I really want to start saying that I perform enemas so people stop telling me they need one.

@helloimnicholas She’s now commending people for wearing masks and educating her. And even promoting sales of them 🙄

[Alex Tolson @tolsonalexander]

@helloimnicholas Relatable content 😢

@Demilynne7 @mimimoomoox That really isn’t experiencing racism. Systemic and institutionalised racism is very much still a thing within education, healthcare, the police force, media, etc. in the UK. Racism isn’t just going up and directly shouting something in someone’s face. Please read something.

@Leicnut A bowl of cereal contains the same calories and exercise times as a packet of crisps... So are they saying people should be “less tempted” to eat breakfast as well as crisps? Regardless of the nutritional content of the two? 🙄

[Alex Tolson @tolsonalexander]

@LiamScottTOG @cineworld I hope that any films set during world war 2 are also stopped from showing on TV and being produced, as these definitely promote war. Whilst we’re at it, documentaries on 9/11 should be banned as to not glamorise terrorism. Segregation? Forget it. Criminal series? Not in my home.

[Nutrition Society @NutritionSoc]

As one of the founder members, we're pleased to announce the Academy of Nutrition Science is being launched today at #FENS19. Alongside @AfN_UK_ @BDA_Dietitians & @BNFEvents we aim for the Academy to provide a unified, powerful voice promoting evidence-based nutrition science.

A better understanding of variation in response to diets may mean it's possible to more effectively tailor dietary advice to meet individual needs - but do our gut microbiomes play a role? Our webinar on 18 Dec will explore this exciting area of research https://t.co/NgmyXHm8iX

@sellis1808 Less keen. I’d have to check that temperature reading!
