I’ve learned how deeply nutrition shapes health outcomes, quality of life, and long-term wellbeing. Because many people are overwhelmed by conflicting health informations, as a professional, I would offer simple, realistic guidance for my patients.

Since it is thanksgiving week, I wanted to share a credible nutrition post relating to thanksgiving. What surprised me was that cooking turkey with the skin on doesn’t make it fattier, and therefore it is a myth to cook the turkey without the skin to reduce fat!
Think your turkey’s full of hormones or antibiotics? It’s not. And tryptophan isn’t what’s putting you to sleep. “Talking Turkey” breaks down the biggest Thanksgiving myths.

For the ultraprocessed food quiz reflection, I stated that the length of the ingredient list generally showed if the food was ultraprocessed or not. This post shows that it is not true, - food with many healthy components could also have a long list - what matters is transparency.

This would be a diet advise that I would give to an overweight person with a bad health habit. Rather than focusing on blaming an individual for having an unhealthy habit, it is crucial to give them a workable plan considering their situation.
Greasy foods are tasty but can cause bloating, weight gain, and increased health risks if eaten excessively. Fried foods slow digestion, strain your gut, and impair brain function. Opt for grilled, baked, or air-fried instead. #NationalGreasyFoodsDay www.healthline.com/nutrition/gr...

The overflow of products that are sold in supermarkets that seems to all be very 'healthy' takes a role in making it harder for customers to really pick out what they need. In my case, it is energy consuming to grocery shop and I eventually doordash/uber food which is mostly unhealthy.
“Natural,” “organic,” and “low carb” are front-of-the-package claims that can be true yet misleading. Labels are designed to sell, not necessarily to inform. Here’s what those tricky food label terms actually mean: www.shelleyrael.com/blog/labels-... #RealWorldNutrition

I wanted to share this post because everyone should be able to at least meet the essential nutrition standards. This is sad to find out as if we do not know who needs help, it gets harder for them to receive the help that they truly need.
If the annual food insecurity survey is canceled - the US has no way to monitor how often this experience is happening.
1 in 5 children in Kentucky are food insecure (do not have enough to eat). This is a 48% rise in two years.

I researched keto diet, and I learned that the name came from the metabolic state of ketosis. Since I do believe carbs are an important nutrient that people must consume, I have questions regarding what might happen if one continues doing keto for a long period of time.
