Here is a good article on the health benefits of probiotic foods such as yogurt, kefir and fermented sauerkraut, etc. These are vital to stomach and intestinal health, as well as stronger immunity, and believe it or not — better sleep. Here’s an excerpt on this from the Nutrition Breakthroughs Blog:
***************************
“Yogurt is also a great choice to eat in the evening to help with sleep due to the high amount of calcium it contains. The beneficial bacteria in yogurt has been studied for its ability to create a deeper, longer-lasting sleep.”
“A 2017 study from the journal “Beneficial Microbes” tested the effects of yogurt probiotics on sleep. The researchers concluded: “These findings suggest that daily consumption of (a yogurt strain) may help to maintain sleep quality during a period of increasing stress.”
“Regarding the calcium in dairy products, William Sears, M.D. writes: “Calcium helps the brain use the amino acid tryptophan to manufacture the sleep-inducing substance melatonin. This explains why dairy products, which contain both tryptophan and calcium, are one of the top sleep-inducing foods.”
“Plain, unsweetened yogurt is healthiest and Greek yogurt is a great, high-protein choice. Fresh fruit can be added as a natural sweetener.”

I think every dietitian has a nutrition philosophy that is shaped by their own experiences, relationship with food, and – of course – their education (which, for the record, is very thorough… new dietitians are now required to have a Master of Science degree, and many of us older dietitians got one just for kicks).

Comment from Jobee at Nutrition Breakthroughs:
This is a great little article from SaVanna Shoemaker, RDN (Registered Dietician Nutritionist), that shares her philosophy on healthy ways to eat and general ways to stay healthy.
There are no strict rules that will apply to everyone as we are all individuals, but the advice to eat whole foods is always good. Overly refined and processed foods can contribute to many of the illnesses of our time (white flour, white rice, frozen food, packaged food, even protein bars).
The best natural remedy for good health is to eat a variety of good food, get exercise, sleep well and create positive and nourishing relationships with others.

Are you making New Years Resolutions? Since we’re facing a new year (and a new decade!) I’m sharing my list of Nutritionist Approved New Years Resolutions… 20 more words
via Nutritionist Approved New Years Resolutions — Hey Nutrition Lady
This is a very simple and to the point article. I agree with the things it says and have written a similar post about “listening to your body” for the Nutrition Breakthroughs blog.
Every person is different and we cannot solely take other people’s advice or a doctor’s advice for what has worked for them. Personally I have tried many different types of diets and not one of them works for me in it’s entirety. I’ve found that a combination of different foods and principles is the right approach for me — and these can also change day to day or week to week.
A body needs a variety of different types of foods and nutrients to be healthy. Continue to explore different kinds of whole foods and find new ones that agree with you, while continuing to eat those that give you strength and energy.
