When I worked in the hospital, I had patients who suffered w/ T2 diabetes for decades

It’s imperative to note that nutrition labels DO NOT show bioavailability (how much the body can absorb).
For example: 100 grms spinach 🥬 has 2.6 mg of iron, but only 1.7% is absorbed
That’s like me writing you a check for $1,000 and finding out I have $17 in my bank account

It blows my mind that many dietitians tell people struggling with eating disorders and obesity to “eat all foods in moderation”
Like we didn’t try that!
If you need guidance, I’d be honored to help you! 🙏

What would happen if every registered dietitian said:
“I refuse to teach (high carb/low fat/sugar in moderation) until I see a shred of evidence that it actually prevents or reverses chronic disease.” 🤔
