Beetroot, the formal name for beets, is low in fat and calories and a great source for fiber and other nutrients, according to registered dietitian nutritionist Grace Pascale. "The fiber in beets aids in weight management by nourishing the gut microbiome, a key factor in determining the body's set point weight range -- as well as contributing to fullness and satisfaction," Pascale said.
Guests don't have to suffer through meals involving foods they can't tolerate or morally object to as long as they tactfully let the host know in advance, which licensed clinical social worker Monica Jurado Kelly acknowledges can be intimidating.

Older loved ones may not realize they need extra help, so mental health professionals suggest having conversations about caregiving early and emphasizing that the person in need is in charge of their own care.

Cesar Sabates, D.D.S., who last month became the 158th president of the ADA, said his priorities include improving diversity and inclusivity within the Association and promoting the benefits of membership, according to a report in Dr. Bicuspid.
