Greetings, Healthcare Colleagues!
March is National Nutrition Month, and I love the core of this year’s theme, “Discover the Power of Nutrition.” Nutrition does have the power to help individuals and communities thrive, especially our cherished community of people with prediabetes and diabetes.
This month, we recognize the impact that nutrition and Registered Dietitian Nutritionists (RDNs) make on people’s lives. All of us have been asked, “Just tell me what I can eat.” We share the basics with our clients and then refer them to our trusted and knowledgeable RDN colleagues, who expertly guide them through medical nutrition therapy and create customized meal plans that encourage folks to “maintain the pleasure of eating”.
In our first article, Christine Craig, MS, RDN, CDCES, explores the role and real impact of RDNs in a variety of settings. Ms. Craig also recognizes that we need to keep inviting people with diabetes to meet with dietitians, as MNT can lower A1C levels by 0.3 – 2%.
Explore our Carb Counting Made Easy Resource Page, featuring handouts, links, and our most frequently requested resources.
Coach Bev provides straightforward strategies (and a New Worksheet) that outline the steps to provide judgment-free coaching to the people in your care. Please, share this worksheet with your colleagues and let us know what you think!
Have you had people with diabetes ask you if those glucose watches really work? Me too! Dr. Beattie discusses which devices are approved for glucose sensing and which are not.
Diabetes Sisters and Coach Bev have teamed up to offer a virtual support group on the West Coast. Thank you in advance for sharing this resource with your clients.
Test your knowledge with a quiz that boldly broaches the topic of Pancreatic Parasites.
Lastly, we heard you! We moved up the dates of our CDCES and BC-ADM Bundles, so you have more time to prepare for exam success.
Celebrating the power of nutrition and RDNs!
