The number of people reaching out to me for nutrition counseling involving weight management has increased considerably. After conducting numerous consultations, I began to see a common thread. Most of the people contacting me where unhappy with the status of their physical health since dealing with the pandemic. Many of them narrated the toll the pandemic has taken on their mental health also.

I am practicing vegetarianism. I have been vegetarian for a little over two years and I like the changes I have noticed in my health. At first, it was exciting. I was cooking new recipes and trying new dishes when I would go out. I am finding that I am missing textures from when I ate meat.

I was at the gym talking about eating healthy with an older man. He told me to eat beets. I told him I add beetroot to my shakes to help with hydration post workout. He said for me to eat the whole beet and not just the powder.

I need guidance on how to get my daughter to eat more. My daughter can be very picky. She struggles with eating at lunch away from the house. It is easy for me to add in things she likes or will eat when she eats at home. I want her to drive this bus if possible so she can start being in charge of her own health.
