Long Distance Healthcare

There are 3 main reasons why someone might travel to get healthcare: (1) there’s no one local who can help, (2) after some sleuthing and you think you’ve found the very best person but they’re located somewhere else, or (3) you’re not even home when you get sick or injured. Whatever the reason, navigating long distance healthcare comes with very predictable pros and cons that most people haven’t thought through.

Nutrition as Disease Prevention with Maya Feller RD

Nutrition is the first line of disease prevention. And yet, words like “diet” and even “nutrition” itself are laden, suggesting concerns about body image or eating issues. How to thread the needle? We can teach kids – and re-teach ourselves – the short and long term impacts of what we eat and drink. Maya Feller, registered dietician and nutritionist, shares her strategies, including why teaching this to kids matters for longevity… theirs and ours!
