And that’s a Three-peat! Third year in a row to do a 2 hour presentation for a training academy at North Carolina Highway Patrol. My goal was to inspire AND convince them if they eat better, they will feel better and heal better so they can live long and live strong. Their type of work can be stressful and nutrition can be ignored which is why we talked about:
✅ All chronic diseases have a nutritional component. Diabetes, cancer, high blood, pressure, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and Alzheimer’s.
✅ Having a high waist circumference, high blood pressure, high blood glucose, low HDL, or high triglycerides are all risk factors for chronic diseases
✅ They had a chance to “Rate their plates” and see where they can make improvements
✅ Told them about Dale Brenden, a well-known neurologist who wrote the book Ending Alzheimer’s. He wholeheartedly believes that Alzheimer’s is preventable and a large part of it is diet. Yay!
✅ We also hit some hot topics like fake sugars, vegetarianism, fasting, caffeine, energy drinks, and more…
✅ Looked at the ingredients in food in our country that comes in bags, boxes and barcodes and it is astounding what is in our food 🙁
✅ And that is just a little bit of what we covered.😎
✅ I think we made some progress!

Taught the top 3 fueling strategies to 120 elite volleyball players today! Always impressed with this club because these young athletes are trained like Olympic athletes. They get it all, onsite physical therapy, strength and conditioning coaching, psychology, agility coaching, nutrition, along with their great volleyball coaches! 🏐
✅ The focus was how to prevent RED-S.
✅ This was defined by the international Olympic committee in 2014. It stands for real energy deficiency syndrome
✅ Basically elite athletes who train everyday for hours are prone to not enough to match their energy expenditure
✅ It ultimately can lead to decreased endurance, decreased muscular strength, increased risk for injury, more prone to fatigue, decreased coordination, decreased concentration, irritability, and even depression
✅ No athlete will do well in school or sports if they have all of this going on …
✅ High school athletes struggle with not only needing to know what to eat but how in the world to do it with their schedules, long hours and homework!
✅ We put it altogether so they could map it out

A peek into my summer! My happy place is with my family and we miraculously had all 4 of my kids, their spouses, and my now 6 grandkids at Holden Beach for a week! ❤️ The newest kid on the block was 5 weeks and oldest grandchild is 8 years old. Pictures of all the guys, all the girls, me and my dietitian daughter, (we are collaborating on a program together- stay tuned), and more fun in the sun. Hubbie and I were off duty in the kitchen, the kids took turn cooking m, and they are much better cooks than me. So delicious!😋

Happy 4th of July! 🇺🇸 These are healthy pancakes made with pancake mix from Step One foods. They don’t look very pretty 😂, but the taste is pretty good. They are formulated specifically to be “food as medicine”. Step one products have been clinically studied and shown to lower levels of harmful cholesterol. (Not all cholesterol is harmful by the way, cholesterol is very important and necessary!)

Happy Easter!🐣 Family fun times! On the menu for 14 —-
✅ Ham, sourdough, bread, honeydew, melon, cantaloupe, scalloped potatoes, green beans, deviled eggs, applesauce and freshly picked strawberries with whipped cream
✅ Deviled eggs, there are always a few bad eggs that are not easy to peel. Have never figured out the trick…for the most part they behaved!
✅ 12 pound ham but look at the garbage ingredients in the glaze that came with the ham. I made my own from good old Betty Crocker cookbook. 1 teaspoon dry mustard, 4 tablespoons pineapple juice and 1/4 cup brown sugar. Super easy.
✅ Made not one but 2 loaves of sourdough bread. Fitting for Easter.. brought the sourdough starter back to life !
✅ scalloped potatoes with my moms classic cheese sauce— 1 cup milk, 3 tablespoons flour and shake it like crazy. Then cook and stir until it is thick but don’t stop stirring, or it will scald on the bottom. Then add cheddar cheese and pour over potatoes.
✅ Sometimes I add a can of cream of mushroom. I added a great brand that is not full of junk!
✅ Easter baskets for the 5 grandkiddos. 🩵🩵🩷🩷🩷 I purposely looked for but main gift was they all got a super soaker water gun 🔫!
✅ And the Easter egg hunt is always fun, they each have one color to look for but fun to watch them help each other !
✅. ….. and interesting observation, I went to church and then came home and prepared food, hid a few Easter eggs and went on a 10 minute walk and I hit 10,000 steps!

Made my mom’s Lemon Meringue Pie today! Her recipe is the best ever!!!!!
✅ She was a great cook! Made everything from
“scratch” …. what we used to say…
✅ The crust was homemade too. I did an almond flour crust so low carb and gluten free
✅ I tend to play with ingredients all the time to “healthify” a recipe. But I did not change the filling or meringue. Added the sugar where it called for sugar. 😊
✅ The filling is made with sugar, cornstarch, egg yolks, lemon juice and lemon rind. It is a workout, a LOT OF STIRRING as it cooks and thickens
✅ I started out as nursing major. Did one year of clinical rotation in the hospital and decided to change majors… had to back up and take 4 more chemistry classes to switch majors, whew!
✅ Fortunately, I love chemistry. Lots of chemistry in cooking. Lots of stirring to prevent scalding as cornstarch thickens, not one speck of egg yolk can be in the egg whites when making meringue or it will not peak, ..cream of tartar makes meringue, … egg yolks have to be added super slow to filling. ….
✅ I ate a piece and it was delish!
✅ And making this pie PROVES what .pollan has said —- such wise words—“you can eat whatever you want, you just have to make it”
✅ It has been 2 years since I made this pie! So much time and work!
✅ Think about it —-you can have potato chips, but you have to make them. You can have ice cream, but you have to make it. You can have a Snickers candy bar, but you have to make it, melt the chocolate make the caramel , crush the peanuts…. There would be a big change in our food choices if we followed this one statement!
✅ Always nice to open up my notebook and see my mom’s handwriting. Recognize it still today. ❤️

Triangle Nutrition Therapy

We help women who are exhausted, foggy, and frustrated, break free from struggling with Hashimoto’s symptoms that continue despite numerous trips to the doctor and multiple medications. We teach you which nutritional components and protocols will help you finally feel like yourself again, optimize your medicines, and potentially allow you to ditch the medicine altogether. You can be fit, energized, focused, and in addition, achieve a healthy weight when you implement these key strategies.

We provide a functional and integrative approach to everything we do, always helping you find and treat the root causes, instead of treating the symptoms. We help prevent, improve or reverse other chronic medical conditions like diabetes, PCOS, hypertension, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, migraines, and female hormone dominated conditions like menopausal weight gain, PCOS, gestational diabetes, and endometriosis.

While we work with many women, we are happy to help male clients as well with similar chronic conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and “Manopausal” weight gain.

In addition to helping patients reverse and treat many medical conditions, we are also very focused on fitness and sports nutrition. Triangle Nutrition Therapy has provided sports nutrition services for elite high school, college, and professional athletes from a Board Certified Sports Dietitian since 2007.
