On February 6, 2014, Sudha Raj, PhD, RD completed a two part webinar for the Long Island Dietetic Association entitled Let Food Be Thy Medicine. Dr. Raj’s objectives for the presentation were as follows: to discuss the duality of food as a friend and foe, to discuss the potential of food as medicine and to discuss practical based strategies to normalize core clinical imbalances with food. She very effectively accomplished these goals! She spent a considerable amount of time highlighting the University of Michigan Integrative Medicine Healing Foods Pyramid (www.med.umich.edu/opm/newspage/images/pyramidlg.jpg) and concluded her presentation with describing how foods can be used to heal within the practice of integrative and functional nutrition. Dr. Raj suggests any Registered Dietitian that is interested in this area of nutrition should consider attending the Food As Medicine Workshop (Center For Mind Body Medicine). This is truly a fascinating area of nutrition and dietetics!!
These two hours were filled with a wealth of information presented by Dr. Raj who is an expert in functional and integrative nutrition. Sudha Raj, PhD, RD is an Associate Professor and graduate Program Director in the Department of Public Health, Food Studies and Nutrition in the David B. Falk College of Sport and Human Dynamics at Syracuse University in New York.

You are so right about this. I am working daily and I know what you are talking about. Many people are not aware about the risks and damages that are increasingly powerful behind the computer working positions. Thank for your concern.

The word "education" has been derived from the Latin words Educare, Educatum, or Educere. Educatum and educare mean to coach and to nourish, as educere mean to steer out.
