Fusion Wellness Ch-Ch-Ch-Challenge Week #3

Welcome to week #3 of the Fusion Wellness New Year’s Challenge with the Kansas City Dietitian. The last two weeks we have focused on slimming, trimming, and adjusting our daily routines. It is now time to add a little Ch-Ch-Ch-Chia! into our lives.

Yes, in fact we are talking about the same Chia that was everyone’s favorite pet in the early 90’s.  How many of your childhood toys can you say boasted the heart healthy benefits of fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and antioxidants? Although you won’t find the chia pet in the toy aisle any longer you can still have all the fun your heart can handle with the chia seed.

Your Ch-Ch-Ch-Challenge for this week is to incorporate 1 Tablespoon of chia seeds into your daily routine.  The options are endless but try them in your yogurt, cereal or oatmeal at breakfast, your salad at lunch or your cooked brown rice or quinoa at dinner. Chia seeds have very little flavor so they can be added to most dishes.  Be sure to post how you incorporated Chia into your life on our Facebook page or through e-mail to get your Ch-Ch-Ch-Challenge points!

Registered Dietitian

Hi, I’m Mary Kate. I love to try new foods and explore new restaurants and coffee shops, and even went on a homemade bagel-making kick this summer! My interest in nutrition started in middle school with my mom adding more veggies to our meals and making them taste interesting and fun, which sparked my interest to help her cook and learn more about how the food we eat impacts us every day. Over the years, I’ve witnessed firsthand the profound impact that proper nutrition and daily fueling can have on overall health. Like many of my clients, I have faced challenges with my own gut health and hormonal changes, so I can relate to the frustrations and fatigue that come with seeking relief. Through personalized care and tailored nutrition, I discovered the keys to my health, and my goal is to help others bring their sense of vitality back!
