RDs debunk 6 common nutrition myths for women
1. Carbs are NOT the enemy: Carbs are in fact your main fuel for muscles, organs and your gut. Healthy gut bacteria thrive on high quality fibrous carbohydrate as well as these foods are key foods to lower disease risk for all major diseases when consumed in moderation.
2. The UNnecessity of detoxes: Detoxes have not been scientifically proven to cleanse the gut and can leave you deprived of nutrition and can even be dangerous. You do not need these anyway because your body has its own system of doing this for itself!
3. LACK OF superiority of organic foods: Organic foods do not have more nutrition, they are grown with less pesticide exposure, but this does not increase the nutritional value of these foods, not to mention the unnecessary expense!
What is important to keep in mind is that a healthful diet includes a variety of nutrients and that some processed foods can still provide important nutrients.
If you easily become mislead by the latest fad, consider consulting a registered dietitian at nutrifitga.com to help you interpret the best evidence based approach for health needs.

Are you trying to cut back on your alcohol intake? Well, you are not alone! Join the popular movement and start to explore some of the non-alcoholic wines. They offer significant health benefits by retaining heart-healthy antioxidants (polyphenol and resveratrol) found in grapes while eliminating alcohol-related risks. Key benefits include reduced blood pressure, improved circulation, lower cardiovascular disease risk (up to 14%–20%), reduced inflammation, and better weight management due to lower calories and sugar.
Key Health Benefits of Non-Alcoholic Wine:
Cardiovascular Health: Research indicates that alcohol-free red wine can lower systolic blood pressure by increasing nitric oxide levels, which relaxes blood vessels and improves blood flow.
High Antioxidants: The dealcoholization process preserves beneficial polyphenols, specifically resveratrol, which acts as an antioxidant to fight free radicals and reduce inflammation.
Reduced Risk Factors: Studies suggest it can help lower LDL ("bad") cholesterol and reduce the risk of blood clots.
Weight Management & Nutrition: Non-alcoholic wines often have roughly 1/3 of the calories of regular wine and are lower in sugar, aiding in calorie reduction.
Improved Safety & Well-being: It allows for consumption without risks of liver strain, alcohol-related cancer risks, or hangovers.
Improved Mental Clarity & Sleep: Without alcohol, it does not disrupt sleep patterns, supporting better sleep quality and metabolic health
How is this type of wine made? Non-alcoholic sparkling wine starts off as a regular still wine (with alcohol) that is dealcoholized and then winemakers add back in flavour and tannins and carbonation to integrate bubbles. Here are some top non alcoholic wines to consider and Read more here: https://www.somegoodcleanfun.com/non-alcoholic-wine/best-non-alcoholic-champagne-and-sparkling-wine

How Often Should You Eat Fish for Omega-3 Benefits?
If you’re looking to boost heart, brain, and overall health, adding fish to your routine is a smart move. Experts recommend eating about two servings of fatty fish per week (think salmon, sardines, or mackerel) to get enough omega-3s—key nutrients that support heart health, reduce inflammation, and even benefit your brain and eyes.
Not a fan of fish? You can still get omega-3s from foods like flaxseeds, chia seeds, walnuts, and soy—but fish remains the most effective source of the types your body uses best.
Bottom line: Aim for fish twice a week, keep it simple, and your body (and heart) will thank you.

Did you know that PTSD and dissociation are associated with eating disorders? It is known that PTSD is commonly associated with eating disorders, especially binge-purge type eating disorders. A recent study looked at the presence of dissociative subtype of PTSD (DPTSD) and complex PTSD (CPTSD) in individuals with eating disorders (EDs) as compared to those without EDs. Participants with EDs reported more traumatic events and showed significantly higher – nearly double – rates of DPTSD and CPTSD. DPTSD and CPTSD were associated not only with more severe eating disorder symptoms but also with greater depression, anxiety, substance misuse, and poorer quality of life. The coexistence of both disorders poses major treatment challenges. Therefore, it is important for treatment to address not only the eating disorder but also the underlying trauma to support full recovery.

Small Changes, Big Protein Wins

If you’ve been trying to eat more protein but feel unsure where to begin, the good news is that it doesn’t require a complete diet overhaul. Making protein a priority at meals, even without tracking every gram, can help build consistency over time.

A recent article from EatingWell explains that increasing protein intake can be simple and sustainable when you focus on small, manageable changes instead of drastic ones. The easiest way to eat more protein is to build on the habits you already have. Pairing carbohydrates with protein, like fruit with nut butter or crackers with cheese, can improve fullness and help maintain energy throughout the day.

The most important takeaway is that consistency matters more than perfection. Small adjustments made regularly can improve satiety, support energy levels, and make it easier to meet your nutrition goals.

If you’re looking for simple ways to add more protein to your routine, here are a few options:

For breakfast: eggs, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a protein smoothie.
For snacks: string cheese, turkey slices, nuts, nut butter, or protein bars.
For meals: grilled chicken, fish, lean turkey, beans, lentils, tofu, quinoa, or protein pasta.
For easy add-ons: chia seeds, h**p seeds, protein powder, or high-protein milk.

Adding more protein doesn’t have to be complicated. Starting with small, intentional changes can make your meals more satisfying and help support your overall health in a way that feels realistic and sustainable.

If you are struggling with adding more protein to your diet, consider consulting a registered dietitian at nutrifitga.com and checking out our Instagram shopping account at nutrifood_pagelove for more ideas of protein packed foods you can shop for at local grocery stores.

Egg whites vs. yolks… what’s the real difference?

If you’ve been choosing egg whites for “more protein,” you might be surprised. Both the egg white AND the yolk contain similar amounts of protein. You are not gaining extra protein by skipping the yolk.

Where they really differ is in nutrition:

Egg whites

Fat-free
A simple, lean protein option
Egg yolks

Packed with key nutrients like vitamins A, D, and B12
Contain healthy fats and omega-3s
Provide choline, which supports brain health
Here’s the key takeaway
The yolk is where most of the nutrients are found, while the white is mainly protein and water.

So which should you choose?
It depends on your goals—but for overall nutrition, experts suggest that eating the whole egg gives you the most benefit.

Bottom line:
Don’t fear the yolk—balance and nutritional density is better!

Fiber is trending—but are we doing it right?
You may be hearing more about “fibermaxxing” lately, but the truth is… most people still aren’t getting enough fiber in their daily diet.
So why does fiber matter so much?
Supports gut health & digestion
Helps manage blood sugar
Lowers cholesterol
Keeps you fuller longer
There are two important types of fiber your body needs:
Soluble fiber – helps control blood sugar & supports gut bacteria
Insoluble fiber – keeps things moving & prevents constipation
But here’s the key more isn’t always better—too much fiber too fast can lead to bloating and discomfort.
The best approach is to focus on whole food sources like:
Vegetables
Fruits
Whole grains
Beans & legumes
These foods give you fiber plus essential nutrients your body actually needs—unlike many processed “fiber-added” products.
Bottom line: Skip the extremes and aim for a balanced, steady increase in fiber for long-term health.
