As a future health professional, I plan to use nutrition to support prevention and patient education. I want to offer simple, realistic guidance that will help patients build healthy habits and share evidence based tips with my colleagues. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I reposted this because food safety is super important, especially during the holidays. The USDA tips help keep everyone's meals safe and provide simple steps for a healthy and worry free Thanksgiving.

I reposted this because it shows that "fast food" doesn't always have to mean unhealthy. Just like in Toms's story, having convenient options that are actually nutritious can make healthy habits feel more realistic.

Tom's story showed me that change usually starts in the most unexpected places. What worked for him wasn't a perfect diet, but a routine he could actually stick to, even if it was one Chick-fil-a salad a day. It reminded me that future clients won't need pressure shame. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

I reposted this because I think people forget that "processed" isn't automatically bad. This message encourages balance, understanding, and taking guilt out of food choices, something we all need more of.

Learning that weight stigma leads to many people to avoid going to the doctors, can cause more stress and can lead to weight gain stood out to me. Fat shaming doesn’t help anyone, it harms mental and physical health. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

Oatmeal is my go to when I'm short on time. Its quick to make, keeps me full, and I can switch it up with fruit or chocolate chips. Perfect for busy mornings when I need something healthy but fast.

I relate to the barrier of not having enough time to cook or plan meals. Between school and work, I usually grab fast food or snacks. The article says this is a common issue for young adults, and i agree, its hard to eat healthy when you'r always busy. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

Vitamin C shows why supplements matter, it supports immunity, collagen, and healing, while protecting from damage. The chart also reminds me that we can get it from citrus, berries, etc. Showing how food and supplements work together to fill nutrient gaps.

I noticed how popular gummies have become, from kid's multivitamins to stress relief ones with melatonin and ashwagandha. They're easy to take but often have added sugars or unclear claims. It reminded me that just because something is "healthy" doesn't mean it always is. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I am reposting this because mindful eating is something I am working on. Slowing down and paying attention to my body's cues makes a big difference. Its a good reminder for myself to enjoy meals without rushing.

This post connects to fad diets because it shows that healthy eating isn't about strict rules or cutting things out completely, like with fad diets, people often label snacking as "bad", but it really depends on balance and choices.
Snacking isn’t good or bad on its own. It can help maintain steady energy levels and prevent overeating, or it can backfire when it’s mindless and unbalanced. The key is intention. New blog: Is Snacking Healthy or Harmful? www.shelleyrael.com/blog/snacks-... #RealWorldNutrition

I looked into the keto diet and found that it can help with short-term weight loss and blood sugar control, but it is hard to keep up and may raise cholesterol. One question I had while researching was can people stay healthy on keto long term without side effects? @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

This posts connects to this weeks contents by showing how tracking intake matters, small changes like adding more veggies, can make a big difference in overall diet and how we feel after eating.

When I did the 24 hour food recall, I was being mindful of how much I snack. Tracking everything, even condiments made me realize how easy it is to forget the small things. It was hard and seeing it on paper showed patterns I don’t usually think about. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

This week we learned about how important macros and micros are for our health. Protein helps us grow, carbs give us energy, and fats keep our body running. This chart here gives us different examples on how we can add protein within our meals.
September 21, 2025 at 2:54 AM
A fun fat that I learned in this weeks material was that having carbohydrates in your meals are very important even though many people avoid it in order to lose weight/ dieting and that glucose is the only nutrient molecule that passes the blood brain barrier. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social
