This Saturday I have been to an event held by Bridgeport University and about how chinese herbs and food diet could help patients. the theme was to help obese and underweight patients maintain a good-health quality and weight. During the event through a conversation with one of the Neuropathic medicine doctors I gathered some useful information such that...
If you tell someone what to eat and what not to eat does not work.. they need some proves... also if you provide them with list of items that is benefit them they may not follow the list..even if they follow the list for two days they will turn back to what they used to eat... Because everyone choice of food is different, the list of items will be different per patients. Each patient will be treated differently in that respect by finding what is favorite food of each patient is and then they give them recipes of the things that is beneficial to them and has the flavor of what they like.
For our Projects all we can do, we can make some suggestions and encouragements through our pamphlets.
Thanks for sharing this. Food is such a personal part of peoples' lives, families and culture.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely is Rebecca. I wish I could have went to this event. Sounds interesting. I think this is why the programs ICCAN and NourishingNYC were so successful because they not only brought them to food, but they brought them the appropriate resources to use them the right way.
