Kansas City Dietitian Defines Intense

Some of my clients say I am intense (and I don’t mean like in camping,…think about it.) I suppose you could say I am intense about helping people feel good. People who live an unhealthy lifestyle are used to living in a dull state of physical lethargy. Fast foods are addicting and cause you to feel depressed. That depressed feeling leads you to hunt for immediate gratification which leads you right back to the fast food. It is a never ending cycle.

If you start your day with a sausage biscuit you are setting your day up for failure. You will feel lethargic and need a pick me up and head for a 44 ouncer. I guarantee if you make one simple change you will feel better all day and be more inclined to make good decisions the rest of the day.

Start your day with with a breakfast that includes blue, red, purple. Berries are coming into season. This is a great time to eat blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, and strawberries. Have these with a handful of almonds and you are off to a good day. Now this is what I call fast food. Save on gas at the drive through by berrying.

Nuts and berries also make great camping food, just in case you are “in tents” like me.

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!
