Grateful for engaging with BGSU nutrition students | Performance365 posted on the topic | LinkedIn (2024)

TY @BGSU for the opportunity to engage with the student nutrition and dietetics, exercise science and sports psychology communities. Talking about navigating, my career with tenacity, veracity, some audacity and sweat equity. To resonate, educate, motivate and get the buy in to we must have #conversationsoverconfrontations, be relevant, respect all cultures and acknowledge issues around access, affordability, environment, culinary ability by ensuring we #listentolearn.The narrative is our clients, athletes and patients- we can offer suggestions but ultimately the decision about how to implement recommendations on nutrition is not ours to make. #AdjustingyourLens #activeadvice #fuelsofengagement

My other Dietetics cap is being a Sports Dietitian🙂😉😁One of the roles of a Sports Dietitian is to do growth assessment of young athletes to ensure that they are growing adequately for their age. Assessment and monitoring growth is vital for development and help them perform at their best.Early identification of a growth problem leads to more effective treatment to assist with healthy development.#SportsDietitian #GrowthMonitoring #YoungAthletes #AthleteGrowthAssessment #GrowthAssessment #SportsNutrition

Read my Story!📍My interest in nutrition started budding when I was assigned as the food and health prefect in my 11th grade. This role bestowed with the responsibility of providing meal roasters for staffs and students and we were also to ensure meals were served at the dining hall in healthy, balanced and hygienic states. I never knew how important this duties were until I was opportune to also help the school nurses in their care for my colleagues that came to the school clinic with various health challenges after school hours. 📍At a certain time at the clinic, I noticed the complaints from many of the students and the subsequent recommendations of the health team to the school authority to adjust the meals. The remarkable reduction in the number of students that presented to the clinic following the recommended dietary adjustments activated my initial curiosity into how important healthy diet is to healthy living.📍Few years down the line, I began to come across articles, journals and documentaries highlighting the chronic state of malnutrition world over, most especially in the developing countries and the gross inadequacy of knowledge about balanced diet and the contribution this has had and is still having on morbidity and mortality.📍I had my Bachelor's degree in Human Anatomy which has given me a broad view of the Human Body. I still intend furthering my education in Dietetics but in the main time I love to create meaningful connections and awareness towards healthy living through enlightening webinars with industry experts.📍Any fun thing about me?- I am a Jesus lover, The very reason why I am living.- I am skilled in Digital marketing and content writing- I can't swim to save myself🥲- I love hymns, Its old but the words just strike through my heart Everytime.P.S: I'd like to meet you, share with us in the comment section.#mystory #olamidayoabolarin #mondaymotivation #healthiswealth #growth #dietician

As a Registered Dietitian it has never been an option for me to not be an Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (AND) Member. As the only orginization who is for the Registered Dietitians my membership has opened doors for me that I would not have had otherwise including:-Clinical Nutrition Manager Dietetics Practice Group (DPG): when I was a new CNM my previous CNM told me about this amazing resource. From being an active DPG member, to subcommittee member this is the group that is my people, who I lean on before reinventing the wheel and get inspired by (because everyone is doing amazing things)!-Informatics DPG: My heart is always in informatics. I joined this group to learn new things and have been happy with their welcoming members and executive committee.-Nutrition Support DPG: Even though I am a CNM I continue my interest in nutrition support as this is an area that all clinical dietitians can learn and grow. This group is doing AMAZING things and I love their monthly podcasts!So question for you:If you are a member what is your story? What do you love about it? If you are not, why not? Is there something else you are looking for that you can't find?#ANDMembershipMatters, #SpeakUpForChange, #FindYourVoiceAND, #AdvocateForDietetics#VoiceOfNutrition, #DietitiansSpeakOut#RegisteredDietitiansUnited, #ANDStrongerTogether#AdvocacyInNutrition, #NutritionAdvocates#EmpowerRDNs, #EmpowerRDs

A recent study titled " Global prevalence of eating disorders in Nutrition and dietetic university students : a systematic scoping review " found that 89% of nutrition and dietetics students met the criteria for orthorexia ( a disordered eating pattern that prioritizes "clean" and extreme healthy eating)Sadly, I am not surprised. I've seen it in my own cohort, and this is a widely known "secret" within the profession.What implications does this have on the dietetics profession? For me, it means that we need to change the curriculum to ensure it has a weight inclusive focus and emphasize the holistic and social determinants approach, and work to improve the diversity of students in the program and the culture of dietetics.It's no surprise that our profession is divisive and sometimes has a harmful reputation as being weight and diet focused, judgemental and individual centered. Hopefully this will lead to lasting change in the profession, less weight bias and stigma and a more understanding, inclusive and empathetic approach towards health will become the norm. It's time to move this profession forward.(graphic from weight inclusive nutrition)#dietitian #change #orthorexia #eatingdisorders #healthyeating #socialdeterminantsofhealth

Investing in student-athletes through the power of nutrition is no longer a luxury; it's a necessity. But nutrition can be challenging to track, difficult to quantify the impact, and tedious to analyze. That is if you don’t have the right tech.Plan, log meal plans, elevate training tables and increase meaningful dietitian interaction beyond just meal plans with Notemeal.
