Today, Alex introduces us to our host, Dr. Ruth Stanhiser.
She graduated from Loma Linda University Medical School and has had a life long
interest in Nutrition and Health. She is a stately lady who gives off an almost
motherly air. Someone you could quickly trust.
Our guests are three enthusiastic young women: Loren, Kylee
and Alessandra. All of them are received a degree in Nutrition from Andrew
University. Each of one them are using their knowledge of nutrition to benefit
others in a unique way.
Loren is currently studying a Master’s in Public Health at
Loma Linda University. She also works with the San Bernardino County to provide
nutrition care and support to HIV clients. She is also a missionary who wants
to eventually go to foreign lands to serve. She has already been to different
places in Africa and South America.
Kylee is a stay-at-home mom who loves her little baby boy.
She also has a business, called Kylee’s
Kitchen, on the side as a health coach and nutrition educator. She has over
2,000 subscribers on YouTube
watching her share how to cook simple yet healthy recipes. She also recently
came out with her very own cookbook, Simply Fresh.
Alessandra is using her knowledge of nutrition to work
one-on-one with clients to help them improve their lives through fitness and
nutrition. She works with clients to create fitness programs, meal plans and
positive lifestyle changes. She works from her Florida-based business as a
Registered Dietitian and Certified Personal Trainer.
All four women have a robust conversation on the importance
of proper nutrition. They note that many people nowadays don’t actually know
how to cook much less prepare nutritious meals. Often, they are obligated to
grab something quick like nutrient deficient snacks or fast food. They rarely
seem to eat at home. When they do opt to make food for themselves, they can
very quickly get caught up in fad diets and other health misinformation.
They emphasized the need of seeking out professional
guidance when making lifestyle changes. They also chatted about different tips
and tricks that can be used to implement health changes. An important tip is
taking things step by step. Dr. Ruth shared how she usually assesses one single
health issue that her clients have –most often not eating enough fresh fruit.
She would start by encouraging the client to eat three cups of fruit everyday
until they make a habit out of it. Only then does she move on to the next
health issue. Both Alessandra and Kylee also use this approach.
All too soon, the show comes to a close. Alex steps up to
wrap things up. She reminds the views that lifestyle changes are easy, but with
a little perseverance they are possible. She shares that she has transitioned
to a plant-based diet and it has improved her well-being tremendously. She
invites viewers to visit SmartLifestyle TV’s website for more information.
