Ok this one is a winner for sure. Green and sweet and refreshing with a little caffeine even. Try it out and report back.

I feel like most people know this by now, but skip the traditional processed sports drink and go with the coconut. This brand with ginger, turmeric and lime is a new favorite ❤️

A great challenge of life:
Knowing enough to think you are right, but not knowing enough to know you are wrong.
-Neil deGrasse Tyson
Friends be careful who you listen to. Florida recently changed the protection of the Registered Dietitian license. The law still says that only RDs can provide medical nutrition therapy for specific medical conditions, but nutrition guidance and recommendations for weight loss is no longer protected by licensure. This means that anyone can sell their nutrition services for weight loss regardless of the amount or quality of training that they have. For example, an individual can pay to take a basic nutrition course online, get a “nutrition certificate”, and then advertise themselves as offering more or less the same services as a Dietitian. In contrast, to earn my credentials I completed a 4 year bachelors degree and 2 year masters degree, both in human nutrition, along with 1200 hours of supervised internship work in a variety of hospitals, clinics and wellness centers. I then studied for several months to take a lengthy registration exam in order to be officially certified as a Registered Dietitian and on top of that took additional courses to acquire state licensure. In order to maintain those credentials, I have to consistently complete and log continuing education hours.

I do not tell you this to brag about my education, only to remind you that in a world of conflicting health misinformation, be sure the source you are listening to is a good one. There are educated professionals who are not RDs but not everyone who claims to know about nutrition is actually knowledgeable. Many “experts” learned just enough to consider themselves an expert but not enough to know how little they know. I am continually struck with how much more I have to learn.
Bottom line— do your research, and if you have a nutrition question ask me or another RD! We love to help❤️

I present this only to remind you that in a world of conflicting health misinformation, be sure the source you are listening to is a good one. There are educated professionals who are not RDs with good nutrition information but not everyone who claims to know about nutrition is actually knowledgeable. Anyone who tries to tell you that they know everything has likely learned just enough to consider themselves an expert but not enough to know how little they know. The more I learn about nutrition the more I am struck with how much more I need to learn!

Any fellow kombucha lovers out there? When I first tried it as a dietetic intern almost 10 years ago I couldn’t stand it, but it’s grown on me so much that I drink it almost daily and even brew my own! It’s a great way to get in extra antioxidants from tea along with beneficial bacteria, yeasts and acids from the fermentation process. Although there are limited human studies on the benefits of kombucha, early research is promising and the benefits of consuming antioxidants, good strands of yeast and probiotics is well known. Check out the link below for a good summary of the benefits of kombucha and comment if you have any yummy flavor combos for home brew! Currently loving strawberry pineapple ❤️

Did you know that a calorie is not a calorie? How processed a food is changes how our bodies digests and metabolizes it and how many calories we actually absorb. We receive more calories and fewer nutrients from highly processed foods BUT we receive fewer calories and more nutrients from less processed foods EVEN THOUGH the calorie count on the package may be exactly the same! Take-away: look at your meal/snack options and choose the less processed option whenever possible.
