Editor’s E-Note
Smart Balance - smartbalance.com

Summer is over, and along with it the prime season to pick fresh fruits and vegetables at the local orchard. Your clients may experience a familiar winter dilemma—in the case of the Northerners, Should I purchase strawberries out of season and shipped long distances? Do I turn to offerings in the frozen foods section or canned foods aisle? Hopefully they’re considering their options, such as choosing produce that is available year-round and not negating their need for these essential foods.

Those who regularly consume the recommended amounts of fruits and vegetables are doing their bodies good—but could they reap even more benefits by considering food preparation and storage? This edition of the newsletter provides helpful tips to share with clients and patients. Read our E-News Exclusive for details on obtaining the most benefit from fruits, vegetables, and other foods.

Field Notes
People With Type 2 Diabetes Not Meeting Nutritional Recommendations

People with type 2 diabetes are not consuming sufficiently healthy diets and could benefit from ongoing nutritional education and counseling, according to a new study in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association by researchers at Wake Forest University School of Medicine and colleagues.

“The most important thing about controlling diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes, is being able to manage energy in and energy out, and the best way to do that is through the diet,” says Mara Z. Vitolins, DrPH, MPH, RD, lead study author and an associate professor in the department of epidemiology and prevention.

Researchers conducted the study to determine what people with type 2 diabetes were eating to make them overweight, Vitolins says. The results were surprising, she adds, because researchers found that a majority of the group was not meeting food intake recommendations outlined in national dietary guidelines.
