Does searching for healthy food options feel like solving a puzzle to you? Ask a VA Dietitian! Our job is to help take the mystery out of good nutrition habits.   

Here at Fresh Focus, we want to make it as simple as possible for you to make the healthy choices you need to reach your nutrition and lifestyle goals.  Concepts, ideas and recipes from any and all episodes can be modified and tailored to your individual needs.   If you’re not sure where to start, take a listen to episodes 1-6 that will give you baseline on what should be filling up your plate and a strategy to focus on one healthy meal at time.  

Because the Fresh Focus team couldn’t pick just one episode to reflect on, we added rewind episode 48, highlighting episode 11 where Dietitian Lauren Hocking interviews Caitlin, a nursing mom of two for her advice. Breastfeeding can be an awesome bonding experience with your baby and provides baby with great nutrition. However, it is important to point out breastfeeding can also be overwhelming, frustrating, and bring up many questions for mamas and their support systems. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to a lactation consultant and dietitian in your area.  

Stay tuned for more episodes at Fresh Focus,  Please reach out to your local Registered Dietitian Nutritionist or Nutrition and Food Services Department to assist you in any nutrition needs or questions.
