Making healthier choices during mealtime may seem like a daunting task, but Allison believes in providing food-based education in incremental steps. A nutrition plan can center around overall goals, and can be implemented gradually to keep your child and family from becoming overwhelmed by different, healthier meals. As new foods are introduced, the health benefits offered will begin to reveal themselves. Do not be surprised when you have more energy, less lethargy, and your clothes begin to fit a bit looser in the waist.
Providing new meals offering higher levels of nutritional value will take some getting used to, especially if you are looking to make major changes to the food choices you offer your child. While the adjustment period may seem like more trouble than it is worth, in reality, by providing healthy choices you will begin to see tastes begin to change. Proper family nutrition takes time and effort, but the health gains are worth it in the end.
Good Nutrition Starts at an Early Age
No matter the age of your child, it's never too early to create good eating habits. Parents can do a lot to make sure their kids eat nutritious, well-balanced meals, which is why pediatric nutrition is a cornerstone of family nutrition programs.
Allison can help your children eat healthy at different stages of life. She has experience creating meal plans for toddlers, K-6 children, adolescents, and teenagers. When parents encounter roadblocks with their children, Allison can offer tips on how to reinforce the importance of good nutrition and how to encourage healthy eating.
Groceries and Pantry Staples
With so many supermarkets, food co-ops, and farmers' markets in New York City, shopping for healthy groceries sometimes feels overwhelming. Allison can help you navigate your choices and make purchases that make sense for your household.
Shopping Smart
Take-out and frozen foods don't have to be diet staples. Allison can teach you how to read food labels and evaluate health claims on packages. She can also go over different fresh fruits, vegetables, and protein sources that can become shopping list essentials.
Stocking Properly
So many foods are heavily processed and lack nutritional benefits. There are plenty of nutrient-rich foods if you avoid the center aisles of the store. Allison can help you make informed choices to keep your refrigerator and pantry stocked with healthy options.
Recipes, Meal Prep, and Cooking
Healthy Doesn't Mean Bland
There's a common misconception that good nutrition means flavorless snacks and meal options. That's far from the truth. Healthy foods do not have to be bland. In fact, many fresh ingredients and whole foods have rich flavors. You can make healthy breakfasts, brunches, lunches, and dinners that are rewarding experiences for your entire household.
Adventurous and Nutritious Eating
Get ready to sample new cuisines and think about food in different ways. Allison can suggest ingredients and recipes that put a rainbow on your plate and enrich the palate.
Hone Your Skills
Cooking well isn't as hard as it seems. It just takes practice and an appreciation for what you're making for your loved ones. Allison can help improve your skills as a home chef and make you feel less intimidated about trying new things in the kitchen.
