Welcome back to Dishing Up Nutrition. If you're just tuning in this morning, I'm Shelby Olson. I'm a licensed nutritionist. And in studio with me is Leah Kleintroat. It's a tongue twister.

Clea. No, Leah Kleinshrode, who is a registered and licensed dietitian. Let's face it, we are in the midst of some of the most stressful times we have had in our country over the last several decades. So when we think about stress, as nutritionists and dietitians, we are looking at stress so differently. We understand that stress can affect our sleep, stress can affect our cravings,

If you have questions or if you're interested in learning more about that, give us a call

at 651-699-3438.

Or you can go to our website at weight and wellness.com to schedule that.

You know, with our name, nutritional weight and wellness, even though the weight comes first,
