Sticky fingers among dietitians'
pet peeves by Sheah Rarback, Miami Herald. Link
We all have pet peeves, and some are profession-specific.
You might be surprised to learn what raises a dietitian's hackles.
We don't jump in front of strangers at the grocery store and
demand they remove the triple-fat cupcakes from their cart
or stealthily replace their white bread with whole wheat. But

hates to see people pick through fruit, then toss back and
bruise the pieces they don't want. Appearance aside, bruised
fruit with broken skin can make a more attractive home for
bacteria, though it's generally safe to eat. (Just cut off
the brown spots, chop the unblemished fruit and add it to a
salad).

Probiotics, live microorganism in our gut commonly referred to as “beneficial

consuming healthy bacteria, called probiotics, improves the
body's overall balance of good versus bad micro-organisms,
boosting general health. But nutritionists warn that not all
the probiotic-containing products found on store shelves provide
the health benefits they claim."

"Five years ago we did not know what probiotics were and now we are reading
