SUPPORTING RESOURCES
Healthy Habits, and our team of Registered Dietitians do not recommend or endorse a specific diet, but focus on helping participants learn to make informed, balanced choices based on the 5 core healthy habits that our curriculum covers. Any resource here that features a specific diet is offered as a resource for commonly asked questions and to offer “tools for your tool-belt,” Trying any specific diet should always be done in consultation with a Registered Dietitian to ensure your diet is well balanced and avoids potential nutritional deficiencies. Here we offer two groups of titles: “Recommended Reading” is a list of titles written by Registered Dietitians and recommended by our team of RDs as balanced and credible resources. “Food for Thought” is a list of titles written from a journalistic perspective that present interesting and important ideas that are relevant in our culture today, but are often trying to make the case for a particular viewpoint and may present supporting references selectively.
