Alicia Galvin MEd, RD, CLT, IFNCP

Alicia Galvin MEd, RD, CLT, IFNCP Registered & Licensed Dietitian, with a Masters in Counseling. Also a Certified LEAP Therapist (CLT). I don't believe in telling you what to do.

My approach to nutritional counseling is a collaborative one, by which I view a person holistically- looking at sleeping and eating patterns, as well as how that person upholds their level of wellness. I believe in understanding your goals, finding out what is important to you, and helping you reach those goals. We will jointly modify thoughts, behaviors, and eating patterns. Through nutritional counseling, I not only educate about nutrition and healthy habits, but I also ask clients to explore thoughts and beliefs about these situations. As a CLT, I specialize in adverse food reactions, including food allergies, food sensitivities, and food intolerance. LEAP stands for Lifestyle Eating And Performance and is an individualized diet plan that helps alleviate symptoms of inflammatory diseases such as IBS, migraine, fibromyalgia, and others. I use the LEAP Immunocalm Diet Protocol, based on the Mediator Release Test (MRT) blood test. This blood test identifies a person's reactivity to up to 150 different foods and food chemicals. This protocol has helped clients recover from the most severe symptoms, typically improving after 10-12 days. My services include menu and meal planning, sharing cooking techniques, and conducting group classes. I will travel to locations to speak and provide educational sessions about health, nutrition, wellness, and LEAP. Please do not hesitate to contact me for more information!

🐟🌱 A pescatarian diet, which includes fish and seafood but excludes other types of meat, can offer several health benefits. Here are five notable advantages:

Heart Health:
The omega-3 fatty acids in fatty fish like salmon can improve heart health by lowering blood pressure, reducing inflammation, and improving cholesterol levels. ❤️🐟🚑

Lean Protein Source:
Seafood provides lean protein, essential for muscle function and repair, with lower saturated fat compared to red and processed meats, supporting heart health. 🦐💪💙

Nutrient Density:
Fish and seafood are nutrient-dense, offering vital vitamins and minerals such as vitamin D, B12, iodine, selenium, and zinc, benefiting bone health, immune function, and metabolism. 🌊🐠💊

Brain Health:
Omega-3 fatty acids in fish, particularly EPA and DHA, support brain health, contributing to cognitive function and potentially reducing the risk of age-related cognitive decline. 🧠🐟✨

Weight Management and Metabolic Health:
A pescatarian diet, with its emphasis on lean protein and nutrient-dense foods, can aid in weight management, as fish is generally lower in calories and saturated fat compared to many meat sources. It also supports overall metabolic health. 🤸‍♂️🍽️💖

It's important to note that individual nutritional needs vary, and factors such as the type of fish consumed, cooking methods, and overall dietary choices play a role in the health outcomes of a pescatarian diet. Additionally, considering the sustainability and environmental impact of seafood choices is crucial for making ethical and environmentally conscious decisions. 🌍🐟🍽️

As with any dietary approach, consulting with a healthcare professional or a registered dietitian can provide personalized guidance based on individual health goals, preferences, and potential dietary restrictions. 🩺👩‍🔬🥗

🌱🥢 We don't necessarily need to eat tofu, but it can be a healthy addition to a balanced diet. Tofu is a great source of plant-based protein 🌿🍛 and essential nutrients, such as calcium, iron, and magnesium. It is also low in calories and fat, making it a good choice for those who are looking to manage their weight.

👥🍴 For individuals who follow a vegetarian or vegan diet, tofu can be a good source of protein and other nutrients that are typically found in animal products. Tofu is also a versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes, making it an easy way to add plant-based protein and other essential nutrients to meals.

🍴👌 While tofu is not necessary for a healthy diet, it can be a good choice for those who are looking for a plant-based protein source or who enjoy the taste and texture of tofu in their meals.

🍎🥦🥬🥕🍓🥑🥒🥗 = 💊🌟
Eating a healthy diet rich in whole, unprocessed foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins can be the "safest and most powerful form of medicine." These nutrient-dense foods provide the body with essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that can improve immune function, lower inflammation, and prevent chronic diseases.

🍔🍟🍩🍭🍬🧁 = 💀🐌
In contrast, consuming a diet high in processed foods, saturated and trans fats, added sugars, and sodium can be the "slowest form of poison." These unhealthy foods lack the essential nutrients needed for optimal health and can increase inflammation, weaken immune function, and contribute to chronic diseases like obesity, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease.

Ann Wigmore's quote serves as a reminder that the food we choose to eat can either benefit our health or harm it over time. It highlights the importance of making healthy eating choices for overall well-being.
