Both Sides of The Plate
Kirsten Angell, RD, LD, CDCES, fourth generation rancher and registered dietitian, shares the science and the story of production agriculture while motivating farmers and ranchers to live healthy lives.
Before the Plate
Sharing a passion for rural America while connecting with those unfamiliar with production agriculture about the realities, truths, and joys of cattle ranching, beef in the kitchen, and the rural way of life.
The Other Side of the Plate
Empowering farmers and ranchers to implement healthy lifestyle choices that help making living a healthy lifestyle a reality.
How is a Registered Dietitian Different than a Nutritionist?
Anyone can call themselves a “nutritionist,” but not all nutritionists are registered dietitians. The "RD" credential is a legally protected title that can only be used by practitioners who are authorized by the Commission on Dietetic Registration of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
Registered Dietitian Nutritionist Day—March 10
Registered dietitians are food and nutrition experts, translating the science of nutrition into practical solutions for healthy living. The expertise, training and credentials that back a registered dietitian are vital for promoting positive lifestyle choices.
Be Slow To Speak
This post is to help presenters learn from some of my mistakes, as well as, mistakes of others (not necessarily during presentations).
Just lessons to remind us to think before we speak … something I don’t always do well.
What is a Blog?
“What is a blog?”
That was the question asked by my 74-year-old dad when I told him I was starting a blog.
My answer… anything from science-based information to an individual’s personal opinion about a topic and everything in between.

“I had the pleasure of working with Kirsten as she was a presenter at our 2019 SCAND Conference in Columbia, SC. Her presentation on the role of the registered dietitian nutritionist and agriculture was exactly what was needed to make our members aware that agriculture is part of dietetic practice. She opened the eyes of members on the sustainable role farmers and ranchers are playing in keeping our environment safe. She emphasized the true impact farmers and ranchers have on climate change and how that small percentage is misrepresented in the media. She also demonstrated the need to dietetic professionals to work with rural food providers on their nutritional health and well-being. She was an energetic and great ambassador for farmers and ranchers and their role in maintaining the health and well-being of Americans. I hope someday we can find a way to have her come and present again at one of our future meetings. Her enthusiasm, professionalism and speaking skills is why I highly recommend her as a speaker and as a consultant.”
