As a Registered Dietitian I have had several quest

As a Registered Dietitian I have had several questions about the safety of fresh produce in the time of COVID-19. According to the CDC, there is a very low risk of the coronavirus being transmitted on foods. While it may be possible that a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or possibly their eyes, this is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads. In general, because of poor survivability of these coronaviruses on surfaces, there is likely very low risk of spread from food products or packaging. With this being said it’s more important than ever to follow proper food safety guidelines in the kitchen. The USDA publishes Choose My Plate: Food Safety Guidelines. These guidelines should be followed at all times, even without a pandemic. So what can you do in your own home to reduce contaminants and keep food safe? Follow safe food handling practices. Four basic food safety principles work together to reduce the risk of foodborne illness — Clean, Separate, Cook, and Chill. #elevationhealth #foodsafety #nutrition #registereddietitian #RD

"When it comes to inpatient treatment of a range of mental health and mood disorders -- from anxiety and depression to schizophrenia, suicidality and acute psychotic episodes -- a new study suggest that physical exercise is so effective at alleviating patient symptoms that it could reduce patients' time admitted to acute facilities and reliance on psychotropic medications."

Do you journal? I never did. Until I had kids, until I realized it forced me to sit down in the quiet early morning and spill my gratitude, fears, frustrations, thoughts and dreams out on paper. I started journaling about 2 years ago. The best part about journaling is going back and reading it months, years later. When I started journaling I learned something about myself. I learned that I am afraid of a lot more than I was willing to admit to anybody other than myself...

Who wins out in the battle of fresh vs. frozen? It's a tie! While I love the ability to go out and buy fresh produce from a farmers market (or rather, had the ability, I never discount the power and convenience of stashing a couple bags of frozen vegetables in your freezer at home and at work!
