Episode Seventy Two-Changing the World One Bite at a Time with Registered Dietician Beth Machnica
We'd love to hear from you about this episode.
Few clichés have had as profound an impact on human development as the phrase “You are what you eat.”
Our dietary choices have a significant impact on our overall health and wellness, shaping the composition and function of our bodies.
The foods we eat supply the nutrients our bodies need to maintain brain, muscle, bone, nerves, skin, blood circulation, and immune system functioning. Proper nutrition also helps protect us from various illnesses and diseases, including heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and osteoporosis.
Nutrition is one of the most popular topics on social media, with programming and experts dominating the market. However, following a healthy eating plan is one of the first things we sacrifice when life feels busy or overwhelming.
With so many challenges, where do we turn for the most accurate advice?
Welcome to Episode Seventy-One of the Nature of Wellness ™️ Podcast!!!
In this episode, we spoke with registered dietitian and health designer Beth Machnica. A leader in designing spaces and systems to maximize human health, Beth is the Director of Health and Well-Being at the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus, where she created and oversees a portfolio of Food as Medicine programs.
Join us as we talk to Beth about her relationship with nature, the role and function of a registered dietician, the meaning of “food as medicine,” and the role proper nutrition plays in both lifespan and health span.
Beth discusses the barriers to proper nutrition, the health inequities and disparities associated with food insecurity, the importance of nutrition and lifestyle changes for women’s health, and practical tips for anyone wanting to begin eating healthier.
This was a conversation we could really sink our teeth into.
