Every plate being half plant is a game-changer. It shifts our focus from animal-based dishes to a more plant-centric approach, which has profound implications for our health and the environment.
Embracing a more plant-centric diet is an opportunity to explore new flavors, discover exciting recipes, and prioritize our well-being. It's a positive shift towards a healthier and more sustainable lifestyle. 🌿🍽
Adding more plants to our plates is a powerful step towards a greener future. It helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions, conserves water resources, and preserves biodiversity. 🌱🌍
I'm amazed by the impact that this program is having on at-risk kids. Teaching them about nutrition and cooking can have such a positive effect on their health and wellbeing! Love this.
The idea of teaching kids culinary medicine is brilliant! Melinda, your work with Common Threads is making a real difference in the next generation's health. Let's keep spreading the message of good food for good health!
I'm interested in adopting a healthier diet, but I often rely on convenience foods due to limited mobility. Makes it pretty difficult to prioritize nutrition when you can't go very far
Her journey through college and med school is relatable AF. The struggle with junk food and the lack of nutrition info, been there. Her turnaround is like a beacon of hope
Melindas journey from struggling with an eating disorder to becoming an advocate for culinary medicine is inspiring. It shows the power of personal experiences in driving positive change.
I think where everyone goes wrong with diets and fads is that we see them as a temporary thing to just get through until we lose the weight when realistically it needs to be a whole lifestyle change
Melissa, your talk is a breath of fresh air in the world of medicine and food alike. It's time we prioritize nutrition and wellness alongside prescriptions. Keep up the great work, and I hope more doctors embrace culinary medicine.
making the healthy choice the easy choice through pre-cut vegetables and fruits is genius. Convenience plays a significant role in our food choices, so let's leverage it to our advantage.
As someone who has struggled with an eating disorder, I can totally relate to this story. It's so important to have access to information about healthy eating and nutrition
❤ thank you for sharing. Today’s culture of dieting has very sadly led to people being scared of food instead of seeing it as a friend on the way to health.
I think is a really powerful story. From the roller coaster of an eating disorder to the creation of Cooking Up Health, that's a glow-up we can all get behind. Much love for the positive vibes!
I love that they're teaching medical students about culinary medicine. It's so important for doctors to understand how food can be used to prevent and treat disease.
I've noticed that as I've incorporated more plant-based foods into my diet, my energy levels have increased and I'm amazed by the way proper nutrition can enhance our well-being.
@@Iam-ob-liv-ious @croonGirl we're learning more about the gut-brain axis and how our gut (which is influenced by our diet) directly impacts our mood and energy
The quote on the bracelet is so fitting. The talk inspires us to bridge the gap between where we are and where we want to be in terms of our health. Thank you for sharing your wisdom!
Dr Ring, you're a true pioneer in the field of culinary medicine. Your passion and dedication are contagious, and I'm excited to see the impact you'll continue to make. Brilliant talk here!
I wasn't warned about the exhaustion that would ensue trying to feed my kids but this lesson in preparing healthy food for my family is well needed today
I can attest to the power of the three P's. Since incorporating more plants, prepping in advance, and making conscious choices about what I eat, I've seen a significant improvement in my overall well-being.
The 3 P's-plant, prep, and play-are easy to remember and can truly change our lives. Not often you come across such easy to follow and practical advice, thank you Dr. Ring!
I love the idea of culinary medicine! Hearing her personal journey and dedication to changing the way we think about food is truly inspiring. It's time we all ask, 'Where's the plant?
Thank you, for highlighting the need for nutritional education in medical schools. It's time we equip future doctors with the knowledge and skills to promote wellness through food.
I appreciate the practical approach to incorporating more plants into our diets. It's a small change that can have a significant impact on our health. Can't wait to try the three P's in my daily life!
Kudos to you, Melinda, for this heartfelt, well-crafted talk and for sharing specifics PLANT PREP PLATE on how we can be help vs. hurt our health and the health of our loved ones.
This is seriously making me rethink the way I approach my health and making it so hard to ignore the voice telling me I need to prioritize a healthier diet!
Props for being on the front lines of the nutritional allergy movement. It's time we flip the script on how we approach health. Culinary medicine for the win
bridging the gap between where we are and where we want to be is admirable. It's a reminder that change begins with small, daily actions toward better health.
I used to be skeptical about the connection between diet and health, but this talk changed my perspective. The three P's provide a simple roadmap to a healthier life. Very grateful to have come across this today.
The idea of teaching culinary medicine to kids is brilliant. By starting early and instilling healthy habits, we can set future generations up for a lifetime of good health.
Definitely, especially as I'm sure they will find the knowledge so useful they'll pass it on to _their_ kids and so on, could really be the start of a massive shift!
I love the idea of teaching culinary medicine to kids. It sets them up for a lifetime of healthy habits and could potentially break the cycle of chronic diseases
Mad respect for her dedication to teaching the next gen of doctors about culinary medicine. It takes a lot of work to get new stuff integrating into education
I think the push to bring culinary medicine to the forefront of medical training is really commendable. The focus on inflammation in particular is especially important.
Dr Ring, I just forwarded this to all my friends. Years ago I started answering what's for dinner? Vegetables! And I now I cook an abundance of veggies every day! This is wonderful, amazing and spot on!
phytonutrients and their role in fighting inflammation is fascinating. It's encouraging to see the scientific understanding behind the connection between food and health.
I know how important a healthy diet is, and even though this talk really drives home all the points about why that is, it's hard to change habits that I've had my whole life. There's also so much differing information it's so hard to not feel overwhelmed and just think 'oh well, it's too late for me anyway'
I have been passionate about creating delicious and nutritious meals for many years now and it is very exciting to see someone with status also pushing this message. Thank you!
The lesson on inflammation is a game-changer. Understanding the connection between our diet and inflammatory diseases is essential for holistic healthcare.
I have been attempting to reframe my relationship with what I eat for so long... Small changes make a difference though! I am going to keep reminding myself of that.
I'm so impressed by the honesty about her own journey. I'm glad she decided to include those parts, I think it adds a lot more power to what she's saying.
It is literally one of my life goals to start a community garden with a kitchen attached where people can learn how to make healthy dishes using the produce we grow 💚
I can totally relate to the struggle of counting calories and feeling trapped in an unhealthy eating cycle. It's inspiring to hear how the speaker overcame her own challenges and transformed her life
The concept of 'give a doctor a dish' is powerful. It's time for healthcare to focus more on prevention and empowering individuals to make healthier choices.
The link between chronic diseases and lifestyle is undeniable and I think her emphasis on the impact of healthy diet is something many people need to hear and take seriously!
Yesssssss it is about time we prioritize nutritional education! Honestly there is still so much we don't understand about our bodies and the more we seek to learn about how food impacts us the better!
Melindas candidness in sharing her experience with an eating disorder really helps emphasize the importance of addressing not just physical health but also mental well-being when it comes to nutrition.
This really struck a chord for me, I grew up on processed foods too, and it's amazing how little we're taught about nutrition. Your three P's - plant, prep, and play - make so much sense. Thanks for inspiring us to make better choices and be our own doctors!
The concept of 'prevention over prescription' really resonates with me. It's time we prioritize a proactive approach to health instead of relying solely on reactive treatments
Ultimately, prevention over prescription is about taking control of our health and well-being. It's about making proactive choices that promote long-term health and vitality.
Prevention is not a guarantee against all health problems, but it significantly reduces the likelihood of developing certain conditions and improves overall health outcomes.
Prevention is a key component of public health initiatives. By focusing on prevention, we can improve population health outcomes and reduce the burden on healthcare systems.
Prevention is a proactive approach to healthcare that emphasizes the importance of early intervention and risk reduction.28. Prevention goes beyond individual actions; it also involves creating supportive environments that promote healthy choices. It's about shaping communities, workplaces, and policies to prioritize prevention.
I believe prevention should start early, with a focus on children and young adults. By instilling healthy habits from an early age, we can set the foundation for a lifetime of well-being.
The emphasis on the gut microbiome and its connection to our overall health is fascinating. I want to learn more about how different foods can influence our gut health!
She makes some great points about our attitude towards food. It's interesting to think about how those attitudes are developed... maybe it's a generational thing I don't know but something is going on because the quality of peoples cooking is definitely going down...
Now I feel the need to ensure I am setting a better example for my grandkids, will be incorporating more plants in our meals and teaching them the value of healthy eating.

The idea of being your own first doctor is intriguing. It empowers individuals to make informed choices and take responsibility for their health
This is wonderful. Teaching kids to take control of their health through food is empowering.
It's a great start, but continuous support and resources are key for these kids.
Teaching kids about healthy eating? Fantastic! But let's also ensure they have access to healthy foods.
Nice in theory, but I'm curious about the real-world application for these kids.
This approach is so important. Teaching kids early on about healthy eating can shape their entire lives.
Every plate being half plant is a game-changer. It shifts our focus from animal-based dishes to a more plant-centric approach, which has profound implications for our health and the environment.
💯
it's one of the greenest lifestyle changes a person can make. if corporations aren't going to change, we have to maximize our personal impact.
for me it was, before then I woke up sick everyday

I'm amazed by the impact that this program is having on at-risk kids. Teaching them about nutrition and cooking can have such a positive effect on their health and wellbeing! Love this.
Absolutely I couldn't think of a better demographic to be learning about this stuff
Yeah I think it's incredibly to utilize this knowledge in that way
I just feel like as their mental and physical health improves their at-risk-ness well decrease so massively
Yeah it's a cool added benefit!
This is a great point, teach the youngsters the good stuff
Plants are the key to everything! I must add that the eating the colours of the rainbow is such a good way to get children excited!
I thought this was really great too! But for me, not chiIldren lol
The idea of teaching kids culinary medicine is brilliant! Melinda, your work with Common Threads is making a real difference in the next generation's health. Let's keep spreading the message of good food for good health!
I was really moved by how Dr. Ring turned her personal struggles into a mission to help others. True inspiration.
I'm interested in adopting a healthier diet, but I often rely on convenience foods due to limited mobility. Makes it pretty difficult to prioritize nutrition when you can't go very far
Look into grocery delivery services that could bring fresh ingredients to your home.
@tobiewinkfield6089 Frozen meals are never a good option
@fayinapinuelas5411 Absolutely, planning is everything
@clairphyfiher7585 Absolutely.
There are so many ways around this
Her journey through college and med school is relatable AF. The struggle with junk food and the lack of nutrition info, been there. Her turnaround is like a beacon of hope
Melindas journey from struggling with an eating disorder to becoming an advocate for culinary medicine is inspiring. It shows the power of personal experiences in driving positive change.
Yes- we all have those pivotal experiences that can be used as awareness to help others
Yes to the Art and Science of Culinary and Nutrition. Thank You!
Your Cooking Up Health program at Northwestern sounds fantastic. I hope more medical schools follow your lead!
It would be an incredible step towards spreading this message.
it's a growing movement!
Back in my day, we didn't have as much information about nutrition. It's great to see the progress and emphasis on preventive care...
"back in your day??" It's still your day buddy!! Never too late 💪💪
I've always struggled with diets and fads. It's refreshing to hear about a more holistic approach to health that includes culinary medicine.
I think where everyone goes wrong with diets and fads is that we see them as a temporary thing to just get through until we lose the weight when realistically it needs to be a whole lifestyle change
Melissa, your talk is a breath of fresh air in the world of medicine and food alike. It's time we prioritize nutrition and wellness alongside prescriptions. Keep up the great work, and I hope more doctors embrace culinary medicine.
Yes, I think her combining the two is pretty amazing

That's really tough Kai, I've seen my sister struggling with buIimia and I know how tough it is. Hope you're on a good path now ❤
I think is a really powerful story. From the roller coaster of an eating disorder to the creation of Cooking Up Health, that's a glow-up we can all get behind. Much love for the positive vibes!
Dr. Ring's journey is so relatable. Shows that doctors are human too and face their own health challenges.
I wish I had learned about culinary medicine earlier in life. It's amazing how our diets can affect our health outcomes
Same but at least we're learning now!
it is amazing yeah and it's also kind of sad to think how many people don't know this
This is excellent, it is beyond time for people to learn how important a role nutrition is for our health.
Absolutely- thank you for your support!
Knowing and doing are two different things though. I think we all "know" it's just harder for some of us to "do"
Thank you Dr Ring. My wife and I are now on this journey and even in our 50s are experiencing improved health through thoughtful food choices.
It is never too late to make positive dietary changes that impact your health in real ways!
That is so awesome and encouraging!
I love that they're teaching medical students about culinary medicine. It's so important for doctors to understand how food can be used to prevent and treat disease.
Thank you for your support! We need to teach the next generation of health professionals the importance of nutrition so they can START with nutrition.
Absolutely! Such a great idea, honestly not sure why it's taken so long for it to happen!
Integrative medicine is definitely a vibe. It's like she found the superhero cape for good health!
Yeah I like the holistic approach too
Thank you Dr. Ring!! I can't wrap my head around while so many hospitals serve such lacking nutrition, we know how much it can aide in healing!
Great talk Dr Ring! More people need to be aware of the benefits of eating right.
I've noticed that as I've incorporated more plant-based foods into my diet, my energy levels have increased and I'm amazed by the way proper nutrition can enhance our well-being.

thank you so much for your kind words!
I'm inspired to learn more about anti-inflammatory foods. Who knew our diet could have such an impact on inflammation-related conditions?
Love what she said about how the thing that was making her feel bad could actually be something that made her feel good.
I wasn't warned about the exhaustion that would ensue trying to feed my kids but this lesson in preparing healthy food for my family is well needed today
As a mom, I can say starting them early understanding the importance of a healthy diet pays off whenthey become adults and have to feed themselves.
Dr. Ring's talk really opened my eyes to the power of food in medicine. I never realized how little nutrition education is given in medical school!

Pretty grateful to people like her who are paving the way for the food-as-medicine movement.

Yeah stuff like that doesn't change quickly. Hopefully we can see this brought in to lots of schools though
Who knew that a healthy diet could be so transformative? Thank you for sharing your personal journey
Definitely feeling her passion for culinary medicine. You can tell when someone really believes in what they're talking about
Fully, the passion is palpable!
I've been doing a lot of research on how our gut health impacts the rest of our body and mind and it is so interesting!
This is so great! I wish nutrition and cooking basics were taught in high school, would make such a difference.
I agree! and meditation/stress management!
Yes!! Start good habits from as young as possible
Taking control of the variables that make up our health, being personally responsible, is always where it should start.
I agree. Sadly this is not the narrative we are used to
I think the push to bring culinary medicine to the forefront of medical training is really commendable. The focus on inflammation in particular is especially important.
Way to go, Dr. Ring!
thank you!
Thank you, for emphasizing the importance of a healthy diet in preventing chronic diseases.
I appreciate the emphasis on making the healthy choice the easy choice. Pre-cut veggies and fruits in the fridge will definitely help
Dr Ring, I just forwarded this to all my friends. Years ago I started answering what's for dinner? Vegetables! And I now I cook an abundance of veggies every day! This is wonderful, amazing and spot on!
veggies really get a bad rap flavor-wise. I think they're very tasty!
phytonutrients and their role in fighting inflammation is fascinating. It's encouraging to see the scientific understanding behind the connection between food and health.
That is super interesting! I've got bursitis so any info on inflammation is helpful to me!
I know how important a healthy diet is, and even though this talk really drives home all the points about why that is, it's hard to change habits that I've had my whole life. There's also so much differing information it's so hard to not feel overwhelmed and just think 'oh well, it's too late for me anyway'
Don't think like that! It's never too late.
Make small changes, everyday. Then before you know it you'll have formed a new set of habits.
Culinary medicine sounds fascinating! Combining cooking with medical science? That's innovation at its best.
I have been passionate about creating delicious and nutritious meals for many years now and it is very exciting to see someone with status also pushing this message. Thank you!
The lesson on inflammation is a game-changer. Understanding the connection between our diet and inflammatory diseases is essential for holistic healthcare.
Yeah the inflammation thing is such a thing to watch. Didn't realize how much it effects everything else
Excellent talk. More people should know!
I have been attempting to reframe my relationship with what I eat for so long... Small changes make a difference though! I am going to keep reminding myself of that.
I'm so impressed by the honesty about her own journey. I'm glad she decided to include those parts, I think it adds a lot more power to what she's saying.
Absolutely, it's always good to have some context as to how a person got to where they did
Same, a lot of people want to preach without sharing what makes them experts in the field. This feels more authentic.
It is literally one of my life goals to start a community garden with a kitchen attached where people can learn how to make healthy dishes using the produce we grow 💚
I can totally relate to the struggle of counting calories and feeling trapped in an unhealthy eating cycle. It's inspiring to hear how the speaker overcame her own challenges and transformed her life
It's a real problem that food has become something people fear instead of appreciate and enjoy.
Yeah it's not an easy thing to do!
The concept of 'give a doctor a dish' is powerful. It's time for healthcare to focus more on prevention and empowering individuals to make healthier choices.
It's amazing to think about how much our diet affects our health. This talk was a wake-up call.
Definitely, I thought I was doing alright in terms of my diet but I just eat the same three veggies with every meal
This is just the kind of information I needed to start the new year!
The link between chronic diseases and lifestyle is undeniable and I think her emphasis on the impact of healthy diet is something many people need to hear and take seriously!
I think so too. Even the less life-threatening ones like PCOS and type 2 diabetes can be reversed with the right kind of lifestyle.
Yesssssss it is about time we prioritize nutritional education! Honestly there is still so much we don't understand about our bodies and the more we seek to learn about how food impacts us the better!
Definitely. I think so many people don't even think about how our body uses food
This is excellent information to be spreading around
I'm glad to see more attention being given to the role of nutrition in preventing and managing diseases. It's a step in the right direction.
Absolutely. It's wild that it's taken so long to be honest, it just makes so much sense
Great talk Melinda. Simple and clear message that we can all remember to follow. Thank you for your leadership in nutritionology.
Thank you for your kind words, Belinda!
Yup I appreciated her straightforward-ness
I've often wondered about the role that food plays in terms of health and I think this talk provides a really practical approach to the issue.
I like the color coded approach she gave around the 8:30 mark!
Absolutely! I was taught very early on to "eat in rainbows"
As a medical student, this talk is super relevant. We definitely need more nutrition education.
Melindas candidness in sharing her experience with an eating disorder really helps emphasize the importance of addressing not just physical health but also mental well-being when it comes to nutrition.
Yeah I think there is a mental aspect of it as well
@@gizmeaux Absolutely. The way brain fog just dissipates when you're eating healthily is incredible.
This really struck a chord for me, I grew up on processed foods too, and it's amazing how little we're taught about nutrition. Your three P's - plant, prep, and play - make so much sense. Thanks for inspiring us to make better choices and be our own doctors!
Yes it's a real shame. At best you learn about the food pyramid - which in itself is outdated - but nothing really beyond that.
And certainly not how to cook a healthy meal
@@the-organic-way Really? Outdated how?
I never realized the power of plants in preventing diseases until I watched this talk. Eating more colors from the rainbow is now my daily goal!
The concept of 'prevention over prescription' really resonates with me. It's time we prioritize a proactive approach to health instead of relying solely on reactive treatments

I wish it was easier to find clear information on the gut microbiome in particular
This ties into the holistic approach to health really nicely.
Ooh what is the holistic approach?
i’m always trying to get more colors on my plate, thanks for the reminder dr. ring!
See I didn't know about this! The different color thing. Makes a lot of sense though I'll be trying it now for sure
I can totally relate to the struggle of growing up on TV dinners and junk food. It's time to break those habits and prioritize my well-being
It's a difficult process but worthwhile.
More people need to have this type of knowledge or at least engrained with the need to educate themselves. Will be sharing.
Absolutely, I had no idea food was this important
There were some really good practical tips in here Melinda, thank you.
I'm very glad you found it helpful!
I thought so too! So good when there's stuff that's actually easy to implement!
wonderful talk!
Excellent and so easy to follow! Will be looking at ways to include this with my students in class! Very valuable!
Glad to hear you'll be sharing with your students!
Teaching culinary medicine to kids is a fantastic idea! It can create a ripple effect and empower them to make healthier choices from a young age.
Absolutely! And if they're cooking for the whole family once a week that would be a great bonus 😂😂
She makes some great points about our attitude towards food. It's interesting to think about how those attitudes are developed... maybe it's a generational thing I don't know but something is going on because the quality of peoples cooking is definitely going down...
