This is so important to talk about as groceries are already so expensive. As a college student, it was already difficult to afford nutritious/healthy meals...with prices increasing that is only going to get more impossible. Definitely keeping an eye out! #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social
Grocery prices are climbing as new tariffs hit. Expect higher costs on 10 key items, including seafood, coffee, wine, nuts, cheese, rice, and olive oil. Nearly half of supermarket products may be affected. Your cart just got more expensive. #Tariffs

Higher prices are likely for these 10 grocery items when tariffs hit
A trip to the grocery or liquor store is about to become even more expensive, economists say. From seafood to olive oil, these items will likely cost more under President Trump's tariffs.

This is some great advice! Sometimes I forget that, just because I am eating a salad, it doesn't necessarily mean it is the healthiest combination of food all of the time. This was a good reminder to be mindful of what I'm consuming. Thanks for sharing! #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social
Salads can be super healthy, or sneaky junk food in disguise. Creamy dressings, fried toppings & sugary add-ons = calorie bombs. Go for dark greens, grilled protein, fresh veggies, and healthy fats. Build smart, eat fresh! #Salads #nnm www.webmd.com/diet/ss/slid...

Some salads are loaded with nutrition, while others serve up more fat than a cheeseburger. WebMD's slideshow will help you know which ones you should choose -- and which ones to avoid.

One of the barriers I dealt with a lot, especially growing up, was an unhealthy diet of friends and family. When I was a kid, what I ate and deemed as good food was heavily influenced by the eating habits of people around me. Because they ate unhealthy, I often did too. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

I've never heard of diet culture being framed this way! What a great way to put the pressure of dieting in todays day and age. Would love to see how the revolving door of fad diets play a role in this mindset. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social
I’m going to answer more from experience than data. Food noise is when it’s a distraction… intrusive thought, that doesn’t go away after you eat. Unfortunately diet culture tells us normal hunger is noise and noise tells us it’s normal hunger. But everyone’s experience is unique - makes it harder!
here's a question we asked dietitians in one of our private/closed groups...How would you answer? 🤔
