Spring has arrived! 🌸

As well as warmer weather and a bit more sunshine, we'll also be enjoying the seasonal fruit and veg for this time of year!

Although most of the produce we buy is available year-round in supermarkets, they are often cheaper when they're in season - which can help with fresh fruit and veg costs. They also usually taste better!

The Adelaide Showground Farmers Market have a Seasonal Produce Guide on their website, which can help keep track of the fruit and veg currently in season for South Australia. If your favourites aren't in right now, frozen can also be a cheaper option ❄️

Some seasonal fruits for early spring include:

🍎Apples
🍓Strawberries
🥑Avocados
🍐Pears
🍋Lemons
🍊Grapefruit
🍊Mandarins
🍊Tangelos
🍊Cumquats

Some seasonal vegetables for early spring include:

🥬Bok Choy
🫛Peas
🥬Spinach
🥦Broccoli
🫜Beetroot
🥕Carrots
🥔Potatoes

A very warm welcome to Sarah from Flinders University, who is with us from June to December working on her Honours project! 👩‍🎓

Sarah is a fourth year Nutrition and Dietetics student, and her research will be exploring how evidence-based recommendations for NDIS clients compare to the funding and support allocated (swipe right to check out her project and get involved here: https://qualtrics.flinders.edu.au/jfe/form/SV_0AOgZeGRAlof62a).

We have over 350 clients at Pod who rely on NDIS funding for dietetic and other essential health services. The ongoing change in this area has been challenging and there is a big lack of evidence, so we are excited to see what Sarah finds! 🧐

What does a Dietitian do?
Malnutrition edition 🧃🥤

Today we're looking at how dietitians can help people with malnutrition, a condition resulting from not meeting the body's nutritional needs over time. There are many reasons why someone may struggle to get enough nutrition, such as:

😷 Symptoms like low appetite, nausea or constipation that make eating unpleasant

👩‍⚕️ Medical conditions like cancer or kidney failure that increase the amount of nutrition you need

🧑‍🍳 Cost of food, shopping or cooking difficulties

🧑‍⚕️ Conditions that affect how the body absorbs nutrients from food

If you know someone whose weight has changed unexpectedly, whose appetite or food intake has changed, or who has become unwell and struggles to eat or drink, encourage them to seek support from their GP and a Dietitian so they can find out what is going on, and put strategies in place to stay well nourished 🥑

Please get in touch if you have any questions or would like further information!

Symptoms can include: loss of appetite, weight loss, muscle wasting, hair loss, fatigue or mental confusion, poor wound healing. People can become malnourished from: Not eating enough food, Not eating foods that have the nutrients they need, Illnesses or conditions that affect their body’s ability to absorb nutrients from food.' The logo for Dietitians Australia is in the bottom corner. Third page has text reading: 'Malnutrition can lead to lower quality of life and poor health and wellbeing. It can also affect other medical outcomes, like increasing recovery time and risk of complications. Your dietitian can... Help you understand any medical conditions or other factors that make your nutritional needs harder to meet. Ensure you meet your nutrition needs by adding nutrients and energy into your diet, which might include supplementation. Offer personalised strategies to make food and nutrition more accessible in your daily life' The final page has the text: 'Stay tuned for more information as we explore this question over the next few months.

We’re excited to welcome final-year Flinders University Nutrition & Dietetics students Sarah and Gabby for their project placement at Pod!

They’re looking into how food-focused play can improve engagement and nutrition outcomes for children with disabilities and how this approach could be integrated into our practice at Pod.

We’re looking forward to seeing how their project evolves and will keep you up to date on their progress! 🤩

Congratulations to Flinders University student dietitians Alana and Jayde, who have completed their project placement! 🥳

Alana and Jayde have been with us for the past 10 weeks exploring the feasibility of a student-led outpatient clinic within Pod Dietetics, and delivered a presentation of their outcomes in our staff meeting last week. They produced a high quality, well-researched proposal which supported the student clinic initiative, and included recommendations for how it could be run to provide the most benefit for clients, students and our team. They were also invited to present to the Flinders University Nutrition & Dietetics department and we look forward to continuing the conversation to bring this proposal to life!

We were so pleased with their dedication to safe and ethical practice, adding valuable experience to student dietetics education, and our Pod values 💚

Thanks Alana and Jayde for all your hard work, and good luck with the remainder of your final year of study! 🥳

'Our Favourite Resource' today comes from a client, who showed us two apps that have been really helpful for him and his partner to coordinate the people in their network who want to offer help.

Gather My Crew:
"Helps people offer meaningful, practical care without overwhelm, confusion or awkward group chats."

Download from the app store 👇

https://apps.apple.com/au/app/gather-my-crew/id1595556266

HELP:
This app was developed by the Healthy End of Life Program, and "offers one central place to plan, share and connect at the end of life; ask for, offer and accept support from family and friends; keep everyone updated; and receive helpful tips about the end of life."

Download from the app store 👇

https://apps.apple.com/au/app/help-app/id1610984236

[Image description: Screenshots of the Gather My Crew App are central on the post, with a bold heading below: 'App: Gather My Crew'. Text below the heading: “Gather My Crew is used in cancer care, aged care, palliative care, sudden death, disaster recovery, mental illness, and more. The free app makes it easy to coordinate support from family, friends, neighbours and colleagues - so meals get made, kids get picked up, and no one feels forgotten.” The Pod logo is pictured in the bottom right corner and a black circle with green text saying 'Our Favourite Resources' is pictured in the top left corner. The second page has the same design, but with screenshots of the HELP app, heading: 'App: HELP' and text: “With the HELP App, your family, friends and other social connections know how they can support you at this important time in your life. People want to help but they don’t always know how to, or when. The HELP App can help to coordinate this vital support and stay socially connected.”]

What does a dietitian do? Dysphagia Edition 🍵

Today we are talking about how dietitians can help people with dysphagia, which is the medical word for difficulty swallowing.

Dysphagia is diagnosed by a speech pathologist. They provide recommendations for safer swallowing which usually involves changes to the texture of food and fluids. It can also include adjustments to the mealtime environment like special utensils, cups or swallowing strategies.

As dietitians, our goal when supporting people with dysphagia is to ensure foods are safe for their texture requirements, nutritious and enjoyable. We have a lot of creative resources and recipes we can provide, as well as working with you to make sure you're still getting your favourite meals and flavours in a texture that is safe for you ✅

If you or someone you know has difficulty swallowing and would benefit from support from a dietitian, we would love to hear from you!

Alana and Jayde, our Nutrition & Dietetics students from Flinders University are halfway through their placement!

Their project is exploring the feasibility of a student-led outpatient clinic within Pod Dietetics 👩‍🎓

So far, Alana and Jayde have:

👥 Uncovered positive perspectives from students, patients and clinicians involved in student-led clinics

💡 Interviewed experienced supervisors about the practicalities of student-led clinics

🍏 Gained valuable insights from the Pod team on making this idea a reality within their own private practice

Alana and Jayde are now working on a business case to present at our next staff meeting.

Exciting things ahead – stay tuned! 🤩
