Nutrition Philosophy

Foods are not just for eating and filling up your stomach, instead, they are part of the culture. You are what you eat. Healthy diet consists of delicious and balanced meals that makes you happy.

Background

Hey there, this is Cecilia! I am a fourth-year international student at UC Davis. Growing up in a family where a healthy diet and mindful food choices were highly praised, I became very interested in clinical nutrition where I could apply my knowledge to have an impact on others’ life. Throughout my learning experiences at UC Davis, I have noticed that there is a lot of misinformation regarding nutrition and healthy choices, so I decided to pursue a career in nutrition education to help reduce the misconceptions among public and also teach children forming a healthy diet at a young age.
