Kids & the Impact of Nutrition on Resilience with Registered Dietitian Jessica Rusch

Our guest on this month's podcast, Registered Dietitian Jessica Rusch, suggests we view our kids, and ourselves, as premium cars that need premium gasoline when it comes to thinking about nutrition. She shares some great tips to help us do this even with those picky eaters or kiddos with nervous stomachs. '

Jessica Rusch's love for food and nutrition developed at the ripe age of 14. At this time, she started to become aware of nutrition labels, read up on nutrition articles, and became involved in sports. Jessica realized the amazing impact nutrition had on the way you think, feel, and look, and thus developed a strong interest in this field. It only made sense for her to carry this passion over into a career.

Jessica attended the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Food Science and Human Nutrition in May of 2008. In 2009 she completed her required dietetic internship through Texas A & M University at Kingsville and completed her Masters in Clinical Nutrition at Rush University in December 2023.

As a dietitian, Jessica gained experience in facilitating nutrition research studies, conducting one-on-one nutrition sessions, volunteering at youth diabetes camps, developing and completing educational seminars, coaching, leading nutrition classes, and the list goes on!

Jessica's passion for food and the effect it has on our lives continues to fascinate her on an everyday basis. Her goal is to share this love and passion while helping others learn the positive impact of good nutrition to reach their health-related goals!
