If we could use one word to sum up our approach to eating habits once the pandemic was underway, it might be “improvisation.” Though uncertainty remains, we can now begin to reclaim greater control of our nutrition, and the key to doing so is not improvisation but mindfulness and careful planning. Please enjoy this examination of how eating habits have changed, what we can expect moving forward, and how we can support our clients and ourselves in health. This article was written by IDEA's colleague, Sanna Delmonico, MS, RDN, CHE, an associate professor at The Culinary Institute of America where she teaches food safety and nutrition. She previously led programming for The CIA Healthy Kids Collaborative and The CIA-Harvard Healthy Kitchens, Healthy Lives Continuing Medical Education Conference.  Read by Judy Minich – Production Editor – IDEA

How can fit pros adapt their offerings to provide a needed boost? People are hurting right now, in more ways than one.
