Happy March
We love celebrating National Nutrition Month and the registered dietitian nutritionists who help us maintain the pleasure of eating while empowering us to make informed decisions about daily food choices.
We are honored to highlight the significant impact RDNs have on individuals, communities, and society as a whole by promoting healthy eating habits, preventing disease, and improving our overall quality of life by encouraging us to eat a rainbow of foods filled with fiber and phytonutrients.
In this newsletter, we explore different types of plant-based diets and recognize that accumulating evidence supports the benefits of this approach, including the prevention of type 2 diabetes. We include lots of additional resources to explore and share.
Next, Coach Beverly shares a personal story about confronting weight stigma during a provider visit. She asks readers to raise awareness in their settings and advocate for weight-inclusive and respectful care for each individual.
We share Mohammed Ali’s “Recipe for Life” as we consider including this recipe and all of its’ ingredients in our daily lives.
Our guest contributor, Nick Kundrant, provides insights into the transformative power of a positive mindset based on his book, “Positively Type 1”. His message of empathy, resilience, and a holistic approach to health care is inspiring, Thanks, Nick!
Finally, we are excited to announce our “Connect with Coach Beverly” live Facebook event on March 13th! Test your knowledge with our nutrition-inspired Questions and Rationales of the Week!
Sending notes of joy and health,
Coach Beverly, Bryanna, Brent, Christine, Andrew, and Ginger
