Exploring Intuitive Eating

Jennifer Campestrini, Amber Fritsche, Kelsi Garcia, Kaitlyn Grange, Kaylan Hebert, Anastasia Narizhnaya, Diannette Osorio Rexach, Rebecca Preece, and Wendy J. Dahl

Intuitive eating is an eating framework created by two dietitians integrating instinct, emotion, and rational thought. Through ten principles, intuitive eating can help individuals become more in tune with the physical sensations of their bodies and adequately meet their biological and physiological needs. Additionally, intuitive eating helps to remove obstacles such as food rules and thought patterns instilled by diet culture. This new 8-page publication of the UF/IFAS Food Science and Human Nutrition Department explains the ten principles of intuitive eating in detail to help people searching for peace with food find practices that honor their physical and mental health. Written by Jennifer Campestrini, Amber Fritsche, Kelsi Garcia, Kaitlyn Grange, Kaylan Hebert, Anastasia Narizhnaya, Diannette Osorio Rexach, Rebecca Preece, and Wendy J. Dahl.

De compras para la salud: Alimentos con fibra añadida

Wendy J. Dahl

La fibra presente en los alimentos consiste en carbohidratos que no pueden ser digeridos. Aunque muchos alimentos naturalmente contienen fibra, es común que ingredientes con alto contenido de fibra sean añadidos a los alimentos para aumentar su contenido de éste. Los ingredientes altos en fibra pueden ser añadidos a comidas por razones funcionales o de salud. This is the translation of FS235. Written by Wendy J.

Facts About Magnesium

Linda B. Bobroff and Jennifer Hillan

Many Americans don’t get enough magnesium in their diets. But most healthy people do not have signs of deficiency even if their intake is low because the body stores this mineral. However, people who abuse alcohol, take certain diuretic drugs, or have kidney disease may be at risk for magnesium deficiency. Long-lasting diarrhea or vomiting also can cause a deficiency. Older adults often do not get enough magnesium in their diets.
