I learned that tofu is made from soybeans and is a good source of plant-based protein, iron, and calcium. It helps support muscle growth and strong bones, making it a nutritious addition to a balanced diet. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

I was surprised to learn that vitamin B12 isn't naturally found in plant foods! The NIH explains why fortified foods and supplements matter for vegan diets. It reminded me that even healthy eating patterns need planning to make sure we're getting all our nutrients. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

I like how this resource emphasizes that plant-based eating isn't just about cutting out meat, but making sure you're getting the nutrients your body needs. It's a reminder that a healthy diet is about balance and variety, without a single approach that works for everyone #beh353@beh353.bsky.social

One thing that stood out to me in Tom’s story was how finding a healthy meal he enjoyed helped him stay consistent. Instead of changing his diet overnight, he started with small changes. It reminded me that sustainable habits matter more than perfection. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I thought this article regarding creatine was very insightful. As a user of the supplement myself, I notice a big difference between being cycled on and off. Also, it's not just for people in the gym, anyone can take it for other cognitive benefits, at any age! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I also found this surprising! I think many people assume that vitamins and supplements are automatically safe because they are sold in stores. It is important to research ingredients and possible side effects before taking anything. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I like this reminder that everyday foods can provide important nutrients! This week's lesson made me realize that we should focus on getting nutrients from food before relying on supplements. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

After vitamins, most of what you see on labels is just there to make food last longer on shelves... #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

Exactly, it's totally okay to enjoy some candy without needing to feel guilty about it afterward! #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social
It's Halloween AND Caramel Apple Day! 🎃🍎

My house is handing out legit candy, not "healthy" substitutes.

Halloween candy is candy. It doesn't need to be upgraded, justified, or balanced out.

Enjoy the treats, enjoy the traditions, and have fun.

These little snacks aren’t only for pre workout! These snacks are rich in vitamins and supplements that our body needs! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I agree! I was surprised to learn that taking supplements doesn't always mean better health. This week's lesson made me realize how important it is to understand what our bodies actually need before taking vitamins! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I agree! I feel like vitamin gummies have become much more popular among adults, especially with how they're marketed. While they can be convenient, I think it's important to remember that supplements shouldn't replace getting nutrients from food. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I learned a lot this week about vitamins and nutrition. What I didn’t expect to learn is that my Doritos have molasses as an ingredient. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

It’s great to know oats and avocados are so great for cholesterol, I’ll be sure to fit them into my breakfast more often. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

I didn't know tofu provided both protein and important minerals like iron and calcium. It's interesting how plant-based foods can offer so many nutritional benefits! #BEH353 @beh353.bsky.social

Supplementation should be based on each patient's anatomy and individual nutritional needs rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. If a patient is missing or has damage to a certain area, it can affect which vitamins and minerals they are able to absorb. @beh353.bsky.social @beh353 #beh353
Dr. Vivian Zhao: connect the anatomy with the micronutrient need.

❓Where are you feeding? What portion of the GI tract might be missing?

🧑‍🔬Consider all of this when assessing patients for micronutrient supplementation needs.

This is so true and it’s saddening to know so many people only let themselves enjoy their favorite foods when they’ve accomplished a huge achievement. #beh353 @beh353.bsky.social

This is something I never really thought about. It makes me wonder how many people are taking supplements without knowing much about the ingredients or potential risks. #beh353

I agree! I've never heard of sorghum before either, and I was surprised to learn how many nutrients it contains. It's interesting how we can get vitamins, minerals, and fiber from whole foods instead of relying on supplements. It makes me want to try more foods like this! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

I love how insightful this is! There are so many harmful misconceptions surrounding nutrition, and it’s crucial that people become educated on health and realize that it goes far beyond body weight. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353
Low BMI has never been a prerequisite for malnutrition.

The growing emphasis on muscle mass, inflammation, and reduced intake reflects what clinicians have known for years: nutrition status is more complex than weight.

This is a good reminder that getting enough calcium and vitamin D, along with regular exercise, is important for keeping our bones healthy, especially as you get older!! @beh353.bsky.social #beh353
