Welcome to Savant MD. My name is Kati Konersman, I am a registered dietitian.
Here are 6 more Holiday Eating Tips.
6. Take smaller portions and be sure to get fruits and vegetables on your plate.
7. Avoid hanging out at the buffet line or food table.
8. Choose your favorite foods first and skip those that are your least favorites.
9. Stay active – even if you don’t enjoy your normal workout, take a walk after your holiday meal.
10. Keep your perspective. Overindulging during one meal doesn’t mean it’s all over. Go back to your maintenance plan the next day.
Happy Holidays! These recommendations will prove to be helpful past the season to be merry.

Patient Education
Patient ED @ 617-379-1582 INFO
On the day of your operation, you will be asked to put on a surgical gown.
You may receive a sedative by mouth and
an intravenous line may be put in.
You will then be transferred to the operating table.
To perform a D and C, your doctor needs unobstructed access to your uterus, so your feet will be raised, separated and placed in canvas slings – holding your legs in a position much like that position used during a routine gynecological exam.
To begin, the genital area is swabbed with an antiseptic solution …
… and sterile towels are draped around until only the vulva is exposed.
Then the surgeon will use a gloved hand to conduct a vaginal examination and will check the size and location of the uterus by pressing on your lower abdomen.
A metal or plastic vaginal speculum is used to gently expand the vagina and allow access to the cervix. Patient Education
Once the cervix is visible, a forcep is used to grasp the front lip of the cervix – causing the uterus to open a little.
Using a blunt-tipped probe, the surgeon carefully measures the length of the uterus and takes a small sample of tissue from the cervical canal.
Next, the surgeon will dilate, or open the cervix, using a series of progressively larger metal rods called dilators.
When the cervix has expanded sufficiently, the doctor will use a spoon-shaped instrument called a curette to gently scrape out the lining of the uterus. In some cases, surge
When the entire lining of the uterus has been removed, the instruments are withdrawn.
The tissue removed will then be sent to a laboratory for analysis.

SavantMD.com ~ 10 Nutrition Powerhouses for Kids ~ Nutrition & Wellness Tips
Visit http://savantmd.com for more health tips and videos or follow us on http://www.twitter.com/savantmd
Here are the 10 nutrition powerhouses that kids will be more likely to eat as recommended by the nutritionist Rachel Beller with which I wholeheartedly agree:1. Blueberries, the antioxidant king. 2. tofu, a great source of lean protein. 3. Tomatoes, full of the cancer preventing substance lycopene, which, by the way, is released more when cooked. 4. low fat yogurt, with probiotics, the good bacteria. 5. cabbage, broccoli, or kale. 6. Salmon, with the healthy omega-3 fatty acids. 7. cocoa, at least 70%, not Dutch processed, is full of the cancer preventing flavonoids. 8. black beans, a great source of protein, fiber, and even calcium. 9. Basil, easy to mix into a pasta sauce and packed with antioxidants. and 10. Cinnamon, which can help regulate blood sugar. Bottom line, make sure you and your kids eat fresh, whole foods as often as possible. And don’t forget to drink your water.

Not a commonly know fruit the quince is related to apples and pears and is ripest in the Fall. It is an excellent source of Vitamin C and fiber and numerous minerals. Because many varieties of quince are too tart to eat raw it’s often mixed with applesauce or fruit pies to enhance the flavor. My experience with quince is from a fragrant jelly made by a family friend from the trees in his yard. It’s great on toast.

SavantMD.com ~ Pomegranates Are High in Antioxidants ~ Nutrition & Wellness Tip
Visit http://savantmd.com for more health tips and videos or follow us on http://www.twitter.com/savantmd
The pomegranate is an interesting fruit that originally comes from the part of the world that includes Iran and Northern India and has been touted recently for the potential health benefits of its antioxidant rich juice. It’s also a good source of Vitamin C and the B vitamins. However, the really interesting thing for me is that the pomegranate seed packed with micronutrients, healthy unsaturated oils, and fiber. So, when you start to see pomegranates available in September through February and you pop a few of those seeds in your mouth don’t just settle for the juice, eat the seed, too.
