Introducing Marissa
Heart Healthy Nutrition – A Nutritionist Perspective
The link below will take you directly to a recording of the main presentation made by Marissa Laughlin RHN at our October 13th Healthy Hearts Peterborough Meeting. It runs about 30 minutes. The seminar provided a wealth of practical and simple moves you can make to improve the heart health supportive aspects of your diet.

NUTRITION FOR HEART HEALTH
The link below will take you a form that you can complete. This is a simple but actionable tool for determining your current nutrition patterns and how they might evolve to improve heart healthy nutrition behaviour. Your community partner JoAnne’s Place has agreed to offer some services from their Holistic Nutritionist, Marissa Laughlin. Marissa will offer you some tips and comments once she has received your tracker. Choose a one week period and track how frequently you consume food in each category. As an example if you had beans on Monday Wednesday and Saturday, that would be three days and you would tick the 3 column. Alternatively you could tick each column as it occurs, so after Monday you would tick the 1 column and after Wednesday the 2 column and so on. If you have any questions you can e-mail Marissa at marissa@joannesplace.ca
