HAPPY RD DAY! 🎉🥳 What would we do without nutrition experts? Registered dietitians are the only consistent credible source of nutrition information. Not only do we have years of education, most of us also have years of direct patient experience under our belt 😊 I have worked in a Latine community for 7 years now and have many so many hardworking people with diabetes, heart diseases, eating disorders, and more. 7 years of being a dietitian taught me: 1. Everyone is different and dietary needs will vary for everyone! I need to learn all about you before I can make any nutrition recommendations. 2. Never judge a person based on their appearance or their weight. NEVER ever compliment weight loss unless you know for sure it was healthy. You do not know what they are going through! 3. Nutrition myths and misinformation is EVERYWHERE. Don’t believe everything you hear, especially on social media. 4. Health exists at every size. Body size/weight does not determine how healthy we are. 5. Mexican food and ANY cultural foods can be healthy and balanced. 👏🏽 6. Carbs are essential, even more those with diabetes! It’s all about proportions, balance, and choosing more complex carbs. 7. You can not change someone that isn’t open minded and willing to learn. ❤️‍🩹 #registereddietitian #nutrition #nutritiontips #mexican #latina #latinapower #latinaownedbusiness #latinadietitian #healthymexicanfood #tortillas #carbs #healthyeatinghabits #healthydiet #latinaowned #rdday #rd #dietitian

Albóndigas✨ Think about the last time you binged on a specific food, was it a food you were restricting or put a label on? Labeling food as “bad or unhealthy” makes them even more desirable - which leads to binging and a never ending binge-restrict cycle 🔄 Instead focus on what you can add to your meal to boost the nutrients. Like this bowl of albondigas for example, I focused on how to add more nutrients with all the yummy vegetables and herbs. Talk about #balance If a food just doesn’t make you feel good, that’s a good reason to avoid it but it still doesn’t make it “unhealthy” or a bad choice for others 💛 Save this recipe and remember to love yourself today and everyday! Ingredients: * 8 cups vegetable broth  * 1 packet vegan ground meat (I used Impossible) * 1 tbsp flour (optional) * 1 chayote squash * 1 Mexican zucchini * 2–3 potatoes * 1/2 medium onion * 1 ear of corn * 2 carrots * 3 tomatoes * 2 dry chiles pasilla, soaked or (1/4 cup Padilla powder) * 1/3 cup rice, dry * 4 garlic cloves * Mint, small handful * Cilantro, small handful * Salt to taste Full recipe linked in my bio! 💛 #albondigas #mindfulness #healthyrecipes #mexicantiktok #mexicanrecipe #mexicanfood #comidacasera #vegetarian #vegan

Has anyone ever made comments about your body? Tell me your story in the comments! ❤️‍🩹 We all grew up in a fat-phobic society that values thinness and is obsessed with weight loss. It can be hard to rewire our brains but the first step is to remember that everyone is ✨different✨ and people of all sizes can be healthy! When you find yourself judging others for their appearance, ask yourself why.… and is it really their health you’re concerned about? Or are your own insecurities getting to you? 🫶🏽More about the BMI scale: The BMI scale was created in the mid 1800’s by a mathematician, with no medical experience. He collected his date primarily from WHITE EUROPEAN MEN and created the weight-to-height expectations based on his preference and only this population — not considering health. It wasn’t until the early 20th century that life insurance companies began to use it to charge higher premiums to bigger people. 💰💵 BMI is comprised of a weight-to-height ratio, which has been used as a metric of (inaccurate) health. Unfortunately, this metric doesn't consider any other influences, such as bone density, body composition, muscle mass, body fat percentage, sex and racial differences, and other environmental and biological influences. Two people with the same BMI could have very different body compositions and health statuses! Better measurements of health include: * Blood sugar levels * Blood pressure and resting heart rate which can be an indicator of heart health. * Cholesterol levels * Number of hours slept, which is essential for cognitive and emotional health * Amount of movement/exercise * Amount of vegetables and fruits consumed * Alcohol consumption * Hydration, which is essential to our overall health. * Inflammation levels * Smoking status https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10693914/ #weightloss #bmi #healthateverysize #bodypositivity #bodypositive #nutrition #healthyliving
