Fats gets a bad rap, but they are still essential for our health. They provide structure to cells, cushion membranes, and are needed to absorb fat-soluble vitamins. Fats are more calorically dense than protein and carbohydrates and less satiating that protein and while we usually need less fat relative to protein and carbs, it’s important that we not completely cut out this macronutrient from our diet. We will all have different dietary fat needs and working with a Registered Dietitian can help you in that aspect!

Carbohydrates are our body’s main source of energy for the body. It is the gas that makes the car run. From vital functions like digesting food and keeping the heart beating to simple activities like walking and talking and all the way to complex activities like hiking on a trail or lifting weights, carbs are necessary for us to function. Everyone benefits from having carbs in their diet, and it is especially important for growth. A Registered Dietitian can help develop a plan for any nutrient needs you may have.

Protein is an important part of the daily diet. It provides building blocks for our cells and is involved in enzymes and hormones to keep the body’s system functioning properly. While everyone needs protein daily, protein needs are greater for certain individuals such as during accelerated growth in childhood, pregnant or lactating women, as well as athletes. If you’re wanting to make sure you’re getting the proper amount of protein for your needs, get in touch with a Registered Dietitian to come up with a plan to reach your goals.

November is National Diabetes Month. Over 34 million Americans are living with diabetes. With diabetes, the body’s ability to make or properly use insulin is impacted. Insulin, the hormone made by the pancreas, helps cells store and use energy from food. However, if you have diabetes, glucose will collect in the blood but it does not get taken into the cells so your body isn’t getting the energy it needs leading to high glucose levels damaging cells in the body.

There are three main types of diabetes:
-Type 1 Diabetes: the pancreas either makes no or too little insulin. This often begins at childhood and cannot be prevented through diet or lifestyle, though it can be helpful for management.
-Type 2 Diabetes: the pancreas does not make enough insulin or the body doesn’t use the insulin it makes. This usually develops slowly
-Gestational Diabetes: the body doesn’t make enough insulin during pregnancy. This often goes away once the baby is born.

If you have been diagnosed with diabetes, a Registered Dietitian can help you to create an eating plan. Medications, lifestyle, and other health issues will be taken into account to ensure your body gets nutrients it needs to achieve your goals and manage your diabetes.

Vitamin D, or “the sunshine vitamin,” is a fat-soluble vitamin that is needed for good health. It helps your body absorb calcium, which is one of the main building blocks for strong bones. In addition, your muscles need it to move, and your nerves need it to carry messages between your body and your brain. Vitamin D is also necessary for supporting your immune system.

Vitamin D in fatty fish such as salmon, tuna, and mackerel are among the best natural sources of this nutrient. On the other hand, it is present in many fortified foods such as most milk, some plant-based milk alternatives, breakfast cereals, orange juice, yogurt, and some other food products.

Always check with your health care provider before taking dietary supplements.

Have you heard of habit-stacking? The concept behind this is to attach a new habit you want to put into your routine with something you’re already doing consistently.

Here are some things to tips when it comes to stacking habits:
-List out some of your current habits
-Brainstorm some of your new daily goals. Break them up into small, actionable steps
-Make your habits foolproof by creating goals that are too easy not to do
-Add a new habit to an old one for ease
-Stay positive. There may be setbacks when implementing new habits, but that is part of the process. Growth is not linear. Always remember your “why” and how these habit stacks impact your bigger goals
