On this episode Dietitian Nutritionist and Diabetes Care and Education Specialist Kim Rose speaks of her work to keep nutrition advice simple and inclusive, the impact of plant-based eating, her work in Florida a recent covid-19 hotspot, and her podcast.
Kim is a Florida RDN who specializes in health and wellness concerns for underserved populations. Her inclusive approach and philosophy revolve around “making nutrition easy and attainable” especially for people with diabetes.
"Speaking to communities of color, I realized it was very important for them to still hold on to their traditional foods, but make it in such a way that it is healthful for them. Additionally, with that, even before getting into the nitty gritty of what the diet should entail, I realized that there was just this mental block about them. They didn't want me to speak to them about diabetes, I guess they thought that I was the food police per se. So I said, you know, it's, it's not difficult at all. It's quite simple."
