LUNCHEON KEYNOTE with KAREN CORBIN, PHD, RD Be Gutsy: Finding Your Voice and Taking Charge of Your Health KAREN CORBIN, PhD, RD, is an Associate Investigator at the AdventHealth Translational Research Institute and the Founder and Chief Geek of Geeks That Speak. Dr. Corbin’s scientific career is focused on human nutrition and metabolism. She explores the mechanisms, including the gut microbiome, that drive individual susceptibility to metabolic diseases such as obesity, diabetes and liver disease. Her overall goal is to advance
clinically relevant research that is poised to transform patient care. Dr. Corbin is also an expert in scientific storytelling. She founded Geeks That Speak to help scientists and other “geeks” to deliver complex scientific information in a way that is impactful, relevant and inspires action. Food Suggestions for a Healthy Gut • More whole/unprocessed food (nuts instead of nut butters; a full piece of protein — like chicken or steak versus a ground or processed protein) • Limit foods with emulsifiers, high fructose corn syrup and artificial sweeteners or anything that is highly
processed (for instance, fresh turkey breast instead of turkey lunch meat). • Increase resistant starch by including any kind of bean/legume; hummus; grains like quinoa, farro, barley, oats; seeds like ground flaxseeds, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds; serving certain foods cooled after cooking like pasta or potatoes (pasta or potato salad for example); green plantains have lots of resistant starch (but not ripe); goods made with rye. • Ramp up fiber: whole grain pasta, brown rice, veggies, fresh fruit, whole wheat breads, avocado. Plus, all the resistant starch foods have fiber too.
