Jak pokonać napady objadania się?
Zacznijmy od podstaw, jak w szkole podstawowej. Napadowe objadania się występuje w dwóch wariantach:
1. Obiektywny napad objadania się - osoba chora spożyła kilka tysięcy kalorii w ciągu trzydziestu minut lub godziny. Towarzyszy jej poczucie braku kontroli i niemożności przerwania, po nim - uczucie winy oraz złości na siebie.
2. Subiektywny napad objadania się - polega na złamaniu specyficznej zasady żywieniowej stworzonej przez chorego, np. zamiast ćwiartki kanapki (jak co dzień na śniadanie) zjadł pół lub całą kanapkę. Jest to POCZUCIE nadmiernego jedzenia, a NIE FAKTYCZNY NAPAD.
Subiektywny napad objadania się współwystępuje częściej z anoreksją, natomiast obiektywny dotyczy wyłącznie bulimi, kompulsywnego objadania się lub anoreksji bulimicznej. W tym poście skupimy się głównie na pierwszym wariancie, czyli obiektywnym objadaniu się.
Co wywołuje napad?
Impulsywność. Istotna cecha występująca u chorych na bulimię oraz kompulsywne objadanie się. Istotniejsza im młodszy organizm, ponieważ w wieku nastoletnim jest trudniejsza do uregulowania przez niedojrzały układ nerwowy.
Osoba pod wpływem szybko pojawiającego się impulsu może podjąć działanie bez myślenia o konsekwencjach. Kiedy impuls płynie po neuronach, pojawia się potrzeba NATYCHMIASTOWEGO zaspokojenia zachcianki. Potrzebujemy więc czasu, by POZBAWIĆ IMPULS MOCY SPRAWCZEJ.
Co mam robić jako bliski osoby chorej?
Twoim zadaniem, jak i osoby chorej, jest odroczyć realizację impulsu, czyli "zyskać na czasie, aż impuls minie". Konkretniej, zainicjuj konkurencyjną aktywność:
- rozmowę,
- wspólny spacer,
- grę planszową, rękodzieło, kolorowankę, ulubiony serial,
- inną ulubioną formę spędzania czasu wolnego.
Kluczem nie jest zakazywanie sobie pojawiania się impulsów - jest nim akcepacja występowania takich chwil, przy umiejętności przeciwstawienia się im.
Co mam robić jako osoba chora?
- Jedz posiłki w regularnych odstępach czasu, o odpowiedniej kaloryczności,
- w ciągu dnia pozwól sobie na jedną ulubioną przekąskę np. zamiast podwieczorku lub drugiego śniadania,
- poznaj przyczyny nadmiernego jedzenia: co je wywołuje, jak się utrzymuje; problemem jest w większości przypadków STRES w jakiejkolwiek dziedzinie życia: presja w szkole, w domu, w pracy, w relacji miłosnej / przyjacielskiej, na zajęciach dodatkowych, jak i PERFEKCJONIZM,
- zrezygnuj ze swoich rygorystycznych zasad - im bardziej ograniczasz przyjmowanie pożywienia, tym trudniej utrzymać "dietę" przez dłuższy czas, co kończy się napadem, następnie zaostrzeniem zasad i cykl się powtarza,
- nie myśl zerojedynkowo; zazwyczaj po złamaniu jednej zasady żywieniowej, chorego atakują myśli pod tytułem "Równie dobrze mogę sobie odpuścić!" skutkujące porzuceniem kontroli na rzecz objadania się, dlatego naucz się stosować zasadę 80:20.
Nie raz należy wdrożyć LECZENIE FARMAKOLOGICZNE, PSYCHIATRYCZNE ORAZ TERAPIĄ BEHAWIORALNO-POZNAWCZĄ.

Clinical Nutrition & Dietetics: Science for Better Health
Clinical Nutrition and Dietetics is a specialized field that uses nutrition to manage and prevent disease, improve health outcomes, and promote overall well-being. Here’s a deep dive into the essential aspects of this field:
What is Clinical Nutrition and Dietetics?
Clinical Nutrition and Dietetics involves assessing, diagnosing, and treating nutrition-related health issues. Dietitians and clinical nutritionists work closely with patients to develop dietary plans tailored to their medical conditions, lifestyle, and specific health goals.
Key Areas of Clinical Nutrition and Dietetics
Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT): MNT is the cornerstone of clinical dietetics, involving specialized dietary interventions based on scientific evidence. It’s used to treat chronic illnesses like diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and kidney disease.
Nutritional Assessment: This includes evaluating a patient’s diet, medical history, physical health, and lab results to create personalized nutrition plans. Tools include BMI, body composition analysis, dietary history, and blood tests to assess nutrient levels.
Therapeutic Diets: Dietitians often develop therapeutic diets to manage health conditions, which can include:
Low-sodium diets for hypertension and heart health.
Low-glycemic diets for managing diabetes.
High-protein diets for malnutrition and muscle recovery.
Renal Diets for kidney disease patients to reduce the intake of specific nutrients.
Pediatric and Geriatric Nutrition: Clinical dietitians specialize in creating age-appropriate nutritional plans for children and elderly patients, addressing issues like growth, development, bone health, and cognitive function.
Mental Health and Nutrition: Dietitians are increasingly focusing on the connection between nutrition and mental health, as certain nutrients (e.g., omega-3s, and B vitamins) can impact mood and cognitive function.
Emerging Areas in Clinical Nutrition
Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals: Functional foods (like probiotics) and nutraceuticals (such as dietary supplements) are increasingly used in clinical nutrition to support specific health outcomes, such as immune function or gut health.
Personalized Nutrition and Genomics: Nutrigenomics studies how genes influence individual responses to nutrients, leading to personalized nutrition plans based on a patient’s genetic makeup. This method works especially well for treating chronic illnesses.
Integrative and Holistic Nutrition: Integrative nutrition considers lifestyle factors, stress, and mental health along with diet, promoting a more holistic approach to patient care.
Plant-Based Diets: The use of plant-based diets in clinical settings is becoming popular for their benefits in reducing inflammation, improving heart health, and supporting weight management.
Role of Clinical Dietitians in Healthcare Settings
Hospitals: Clinical dietitians are essential in hospitals, where they design dietary plans for patients recovering from surgeries, dealing with chronic illnesses, or undergoing treatment that affects their nutritional status.
Outpatient Clinics: Many dietitians work in clinics, providing ongoing support for patients with chronic conditions like diabetes or high cholesterol.
Rehabilitation Centers: Nutritionists here help patients with recovery, focusing on high-calorie or high-protein diets to promote healing.
Skills for Clinical Dietitians
Analytical Skills: Strong understanding of biochemistry and physiology to interpret lab data and develop dietary plans. Counseling and Communication: The ability to communicate effectively with patients to promote adherence to dietary plans.
Evidence-Based Practice: Staying updated with the latest research to provide science-backed advice. Career Opportunities
Clinical dietitian: employed by long-term care homes, clinics, or hospitals.
Nutrition Researcher: Contributing to research on disease prevention and dietary interventions.
Consultant Dietitian: Providing freelance or consultancy services for healthcare facilities, wellness centers, or private clients.
Corporate Wellness Programs: Supporting employees’ health and well-being through nutritional guidance in corporate settings.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Clinical Nutrition and Dietetics is a transformative field that bridges the gap between nutrition science and patient care, offering personalized approaches to health and wellness. By understanding the intricate relationship between diet, disease, and overall health, clinical dietitians play a crucial role in improving health outcomes and enhancing quality of life. As new research and innovations in nutrition continue to emerge, this field remains essential in advancing preventive care, supporting disease management, and promoting holistic well-being.

What this Tumblr is About
This Tumblr is basically my brain dump from learning.
I LOVE to learn! Hopefully, you do too!
I love to learn about about nutrition, Biochemistry/chemistry, physics, mathematics, biology, medicine, physiology, and anatomy, for example.
For the sake of this Tumblr, I am going to stick with primarily these topics and not so much languages -- which is my other interest, though those may drop in from time to time. We'll see!
A little about me...
I am a senior nutrition student in the United States. I plan on becoming a registered dietitian and working with those with eating disorders and interests ranging from treatment of eating disorders, nutrition education, research in nutrition intersection with multiple disciplines such as medicine, psychology, religion, sociology, etc, and nutritional biochemistry. I have interests in practice, teaching, and research. I also am an honors student, an ambassador for my major and school, a regular volunteer at my food pantry, and a lover of knowledge. I have 8 cats (YES I SAID EIGHT!!) that were all once strays (I originally had three but found a fourth cat that was malnourished, took her in, nourished her, then she left and came back pregnant after we thought she was fixed, and so that is how I ended up with four extra unexpecteds!!)
I hope you click that follow button and join me on my learning journey!

Serum Vitamin B12 vs. Urine Methyl Malonic Acid: Which is the Superior Marker for B12 Status?
Introduction:
Vitamin B12 plays a pivotal role in numerous physiological processes. Determining its deficiency with accuracy is essential for effective healthcare. While serum vitamin B12 is a standard test, urine methyl malonic acid (MMA) may offer a clearer window into the body's B12 status.
1. Biochemical vs. Functional Indicators
Serum Vitamin B12: Reflects the vitamin's concentration in the blood but may not truly indicate its functionality at a cellular level.
Urine MMA: Elevated levels suggest a functional B12 deficiency, showcasing metabolic changes due to insufficient B12.
2. Sensitivity and Early Detection
Serum B12 might not detect early or mild deficiencies. In such borderline scenarios, urine MMA's elevated levels can indicate even the slightest B12 shortages.
3. Specificity of the Test
Urine MMA is closely linked to B12 status, making it a more specific marker. In contrast, serum B12 can be influenced by factors like inflammation or liver conditions.
4. Pernicious Anemia and Its Challenges
In this autoimmune condition, serum B12 levels can be misleading. MMA, however, provides a more direct insight into the body's B12 status.
5. Detecting Subclinical Deficiencies
Even with "normal" serum B12 levels, some might suffer at a cellular level. Urine MMA is adept at identifying such subclinical deficiencies.
Conclusion:
While serum B12 is still widely used, urine MMA brings several advantages to the table, especially in nuanced or complex cases. As always, it's essential to consider the whole clinical picture, including symptoms and patient history, when gauging vitamin B12 status.

Nadeszła jesień i pewnie wiele z Was czuje osłabienie, a nawet chroniczne zmęczenie. Co w takim razie mówi o tym dietetyka? Przed Wami spis suplementów m.in. na odporność, dobry humor czy świetną cerę, które rzeczywiście warto stosować w codziennej rutynie - efekty mogą Was zaskoczyć!
1) Witamina D: w okresie jesienno zimowym 4000 UI dziennie, od kwietnia do września 2000 UI na dobę. Dlaczego tak dużo, skoro w polskich normach żywienia jest to tylko 600 UI na dzień? Ponieważ, aby zapobiec krzywicy i utrzymać ilość kalcytriolu (aktywnej formy witaminy D3) we krwi na poziomie minimum 87 nmol/L należy dziennie przyjmować 3000 UI. Witamina D wykazuje również działanie antynowotworowe, terapeutyczne (np. depresji czy u osób z autyzmem, ponieważ początkuje produkcję serotoniny w organizmie), zmniejsza ciśnienie, ryzyko wystąpienia chorób serca oraz cukrzycy typu I. Znajdziecie ją m.in. w tranach, grzybach (np. shitake), margarynie miękkiej oraz mleku.
2) Lecytyna: pisałam już jakiś czas temu post o jej właściwościach. W skrócie - bardzo skuteczna, pochodzenia naturalnego pomoc w efektywnej nauce, koncentracji i zapamiętywaniu. Dzienne zapotrzebowanie wynosi od 2 g do 2,5 g. Znajdziecie ją w żółtku jaja kurzego, słoneczniku, rzepaku oraz ziarnach soi.
3) Probiotyki: a wraz z nimi prebiotyki (synbiotyki zawierają obie te rzeczy). Pro - czyli kolonie dobrych bakterii jelitowych, pre - frakcja błonnika nierozpuszczalnego, która dzięki tej właściwości jest pokarmem dla bakterii jelitowych, które go fermentują. Dbaj o swoje bakterie jelitowe, ponieważ to one w dużym stopniu dyktują Ci, jakie masz dziś samopoczucie, parszywe czy superowe poprzez oś mózg-jelita. Jak rozpieszczać naszych przyjaciół? Dbaj o dzienną podaż błonnika (wg WHO 25 g błonnika dziennie) w tym tego nierozpuszczalnego z m.in. płatków owsianych, otrębów, produktów pełnoziarnistych, orzechów i nasion. Natomiast aby dbać o prawidłowy skład naszej jelitowej ekipy należy jej dostarczać codziennie nowych towarzyszy przygody pod postacią fermentowanych produktów - kombuchy, kefirów, wszelkich kiszonych warzyw (ogórki, kimchi, rzodkiewki, co kto lubi) i innych.
4) Colostrum: tzw. siara, pierwsze wyprodukowane przez ssaki mleko pod koniec ciąży, które zawiera w sobie najwięcej laktoferyny oraz immunoglobulin G przyczyniających się do selekcji odpowiednich szczepów bakteryjnych w jelitach człowieka. Colostrum bogate w najcenniejsze składniki zapobiega wszelkim infekcjom czy alergiom, to jest dosłowny game changer w odporności.
5) Kolagen morski: last but not least dla zadbanej nie tylko cery, ale również stawów, kości, włosów czy paznokci. Dlaczego akurat morski, a nie żaden inny? Ponieważ ten konkretny pochodzenia rybiego ma najbardziej zbliżoną budowę do naszego, ludzkiego, dzięki czemu jest największa szansa, że wpasuje się w nasz i rzeczywiście zadziała.
Pamiętaj, suplementację zaczynamy dopiero wtedy, jeżeli Twoja dieta nie pokrywa zapotrzebowania na dany element. Właśnie w tym tkwi piękno dietetyki - aby wyciągać wszystko co potrzebne Z PYSZNEGO JEDZENIA, nie z kapsułki.

Low quality pic but high quality moment… It has been a while since I have posted something here… I’m taking a moment to write about my graduation 👩🏻🎓 from @heldb.bruxelles after a few month. I was over the moon to be graduated after 3 years of hard (but not so hard) work. let me explain…I obviously did worked hard to get my degree but I wasn’t making me sick and overthinking to get things done. Studying and dedication does pay ! 🙃 I have grown so much since medschool and I’m proud of me. This 3 years of dietetics and lockdown (best time of my life truly) allowed me to heal from my experience in med school. I honestly can tell now that I wouldn’t have been happy as doctor … I’m a happy dietician now So goodbye Medecine Thanks a lot dietetics And Hello biomedical sciences Thanks to my teachers for passing their knowledge and passion for dietetics and also for their support #rdfinally #rd #dietetics #dietitian #dietician #diet #dietetique #dieteticienne #grad #graduation #graduate #graduated #classof2022 (à Haute École Lucia de Brouckère) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqGVCytIxQ3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
