Thanks to Ashley Carter, RD, LDN, co-founder of @eatwellexchange, and her team for their partnership in Feeding the Team last week at The Historic Booker T. Washington Sr. High School in Miami. She discussed healthy nutrition and easy recipes with the team members. They also provided a Jerk Chicken Pasta meal before their football game.
Ashley likes to practice holistic health and tries to incorporate mental, physical and nutrition into her interventions. She is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and believes the way we eat is highly influenced by our families, culture, access to foods and our beliefs or religion.
Eat Well Exchange works to empower lower socioeconomic communities with the access, knowledge and confidence they need to eat a nutritious diet within their own food culture. Their goal is to end the generational cycle of negative health outcomes in low-income communities through nutrition education.
Thanks to Principal Anthony E. Simons III for facilitating this master class.
