Clinical RDs at Evangelical Homes- Sterling Heights continue to be committed to enhance clients’ nutritional awareness and knowledge. Our nutrition session on the topic of “Get Heart Healthy: Eating Out” was a success, it lasted over an hour! Clients and their family joined RDs Janice Fero and Dao Tran, to discuss and share healthy eating tips and strategies when eating out. Topics of discussion included portion control, paying attention to preparation methods, how to maximize nutrition and planning ahead. While engaging in a group conversation, clients and family enjoyed our heart healthy snack: fruited yogurt with unsalted cashew along with September’s superfood: apple slices. RDs also provided attendants a handouts of “Healthy Eating on the Run: A Month of Tips” by Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics to take home. At the end of the session, clients and family answered a quick four questions quiz using the knowledge they’ve gained! Answers were right on target!
