Additions to the Nutrition Message Board

[Kathrynne Holden, MS,RD]

Dear colleagues,
   Updates to the Nutrition Message Board --
1) Materials developed by nutrition professionals:
HIV ReSource Review -- newsletter and website; information to enhance
your knowledge of nutrition and HIV; includes an introductory offer
A new book: "Vegetable Desserts" -- lots of creative ways to assist your
clients to include more vegetables!
Slides and script presentations, ready-made for you: Alternative
Nutrition Therapies, also Antioxidants and Your Health
Book: "Afraid to eat: Children and Teens in Weight Crisis"  -- for those
of you working in ED/body image issues
Nutrition newsletter for Professionals -- "Food for Health"
Cooking demo kit for Professionals
Nutrition ed materials for Professionals -- Quick & Healthy meals kit
and much more
Carbohydrate counting kit, includes graphics -- spring discount

I hope some of you who have posted re alternative therapies and quackery
will post information you've gleaned under the thread "Alternative
therapies -- the good, the bad, and the ugly." This is a place to let
others know about safe, effective products, as well as scams and
quackery. If there are products or services that you or your clients
have found effective, let others know. If you've evidence of a new
health scam, please post so others can benefit. The subject of Mannatech
has come up repeatedly, as has the Rexall line -- why keep reinventing
the wheel? Post information here!

The thread "Reimbursement issues" now includes a list of useful URLS you
can copy off for later use.

Other information: a source for FFQ for children; also for low literacy
cookbooks.
And, if you need low literacy information, resources, or are working
with low income, culturally diverse audiences, you need to visit Ellen
Schuster's site -- it's fantastic!

There's information on carb counting in pediatric diabetes and a calcium
brochure for kids.

The Food Safety Institute offers a manual on food safety policy and
procedures that you can purchase at a discount.

Queries -- anyone have information on Nutrition and addictive behavior,
or nicotine withdrawal and impact on appetite & health? know of a
portable nutrition therapy resource? know of an interaction between
Reglan and enteral formulas? Know about dietitians involved in
assessment/tx of pts with dysphagia?
