Picky eating parents = picky children. Modelling from parents to teach healthy eating
When a parent is a picky eater, the children will often take on to the eating habits of the parent/s. In my interview today I have Andrea Falcone who works with families and helps them learn health eating habits that the whole family can follow.
Andrea Falcone is a Registered Dietitian and Certified Fitness Professional in Private Practice. Andrea received her BSc in Honours Science from McMaster University and BASc in Nutrition and Food from Ryerson University in Ontario. Andrea works with families, children, athletes and various groups to support healthy habits for their lifestyles including food skills, meal preparation, and how to balance their nutrition throughout the day to maximize their energy and health.
Andrea’s biggest incentive with her clients is to teach them how foods can heal, from the inside out, encompassing a holistic approach of mind and body. Andrea truly believes in the importance of teaching and enabling each person with basic food skills, so that they can appreciate all food sources and learn what they are able to do for one’s body, confidence and overall energy. Andrea encourages the busy families that she works with how to balance out mealtime tasks so that family dinners can be enjoyed as often as possible, as an opportunity to create positive lifelong habits and behaviours as well as a strong family unit. As a Certified Fitness Professional, Andrea is able to coach and guide her clients towards the proper information on sports nutrition and understanding how to fuel their day in order to enhance performance through real food.
Andrea is involved in the media through television and radio appearances, Podcasts, writing for a number of news, media outlets, and brands that align with her objectives, and has some extra fun in the kitchen with recipe development. Andrea runs cooking camps and demonstrations throughout the year, and supports Dietetic Interns as they prepare for their career in dietetics.
Growing up with her own food and body image issues, Andrea suffered silently with an eating disorder. Once she started learning about the science of food, the body and mind, Andrea pursued a journey of healing and bettering herself. Now Andrea focuses on intuitive eating, without any restrictions, and focusing on the foods that make her feel her best. Andrea has embraced evidence-based research, knowledge, and application towards living and leading a healthy lifestyle while juggling many commitments and responsibilities. Through Andrea’s work experience and dedicated passions, she has evolved to learn more about our food system, environments, and behaviours, enabling each of her clients with the opportunity to recognize their greatest potentials and put their best health and best self forward each day on this Earth.
