Welcome! My name is Cassie Blandford. I am a graduate from Murray State University with a Bachelor’s Degree in food, nutrition, and dietetics. This podcast is for dietetic students who are either focusing on their undergrad, just graduated and going into an internship, or those studying for their exam. I will be talking about subjects such as what options we have as dietitians and I will also be having “student sessions” which will review medical nutrition therapy for diseases. Once I begin my own internship, I will do recaps of the week to help prepare others for their own internships!

    Bariatric Surgery

    Bariatric Surgery

    Hi guys! Today I am discussing bariatric surgery. I cover the criteria for the surgery, the five types of surgery, the benefits and risks, the pre-surgical nutrition eval, nutritional impacts, the nutritional and medical management post-op, dumping syndrome, and the long-term nutrition and medical management. I end this episode with an example of an ADIME note for this particular patient as well. I loved covering this topic and I really recommend further research if you find this interesting!

    Interview: Family Farmer

    Interview: Family Farmer

    Hey guys! Today I had the pleasure of interviewing one of my best friends! Aaron and his family are located in my hometown, owning a small family farm growing row crops such as corn, soybeans, and tobacco. Today we discuss his opinions and experiences with GMOs, product labeling, sustainability, changes in farming practices, and the potentials for the farming market in the future. I learned so much from this interview that I was not expected and hope you do as well!!!

    Pathophys & MNT: Upper GI

    Pathophys & MNT: Upper GI

    Hey guys! Today I am briefly covering the pathophysiology and medical nutrition therapy for some upper GI disorders. The disorders covered include cleft palate and lip, GERD, Barrett's esophagus, peptic ulcers, dumping syndrome, gastroparesis, and some cancers. This is a very brief covering of these disorders and should really just be used to familiarize yourself! This episode is a great headway into bariatric surgery, which we will be covering in the next student session episode!

    Pathophys & MNT: Cancer

    Pathophys & MNT: Cancer

    Today I discuss the pathophysiology and the medical nutrition therapy associated with neoplasms and tumors. Unfortunately, once cancer has formed, we as dietitians cannot do much in terms of reversing the disease, but we are helpful in the treatment of symptoms of cancer and cancer treatment. 

    The new Instagram for this podcast is making_a_dietitian and I will use it to post diagrams and graphics that help to visualize what I talk about in the episodes. I will also use it to talk with listeners and take recommendations for episodes!
