Betsy’s Healthy Concept
“You are what you eat.” This is a philosophy that I have been told as a little girl, but today brings a lot more meaning to me as a nutrition professional. What we feed our bodies not only effects how we look and feel, but how long we live and the quality of life we will have. We live in a medical society that is taking the focus away from treatment and emphasizing prevention. Many of the diseases that affect our society are related to our lifestyle habits, and with small changes can facilitate improvements in health. My focus is to work with individuals on creating healthy lifestyle habits that they can incorporate on a daily basis so that they can continue to improve health for the long-term. I believe it takes a team approach to improve health and finding the right balance of diet and exercise and motivation that are unique to the individual is the key to success.”
