Welcome to Dishing Up Nutrition, brought to you by Nutritional Weight and Wellness.

As always, the regular listeners know the routine, right?

I first need to say hello to my two biggest fans listening back home. So hello to Riley, my five-year-old,

and hello to Rissy, my three-year-old. And by the way, we have to say thanks to Dar for dropping

off our headphones early this morning. Couldn't have done the show without them, Darth. Thank you.

So here's my lead-in to today's topic. Think about these questions and answer them to

yourselves. Have you ever been on repeated rounds of prednisone or cortisone? Are you on a low-fat

have a big sweet tooth that you often give into do you have a gluten sensitivity do you drink

more than one can of soda a week are you a smoker do you have a regular menstrual cycles?
