These care packages include a variety of items to make their time in the hospital just a little easier, as well as a Nerdbugs liver plushie and a gift card for food delivery. You can help us hit our goal! Visit https://secure.qgiv.com/for/2026christmasinseptember/ to donate today!

Liver Lingo! Sometimes on lab work you will see a number for AST, but do you know what that means? Aspartate transaminase (AST) is an enzyme found in high levels in the liver, heart, and muscles. Injury to the liver causes AST to be released into the blood. The difference between ALT and AST is that ALT is found predominately in the liver. A simple blood test can be taken to help doctor's detect damage to the liver.

If your house is anything like mine, everyone is craving frozen sweet treats this summer! We try to limit our ice cream consumption and have found some delicious frozen fruit/yogurt replacements, like this one!

This swap is kid and adult approved! Make sure that the bark is cut into a size that is quickly eaten b/c it can melt fast! (that's part of the fun, haha)

Frozen Yogurt Bark
Ingredients
- 2 cups whole milk vanilla yogurt
- ½ cup diced strawberries
- ¼ cup blueberries
- ¼ cup granola

Instructions
- Line a rimmed baking quarter sheet with wax or parchment paper.
- Pour the yogurt into the baking dish and spread evenly on the prepared baking sheet so that it fills the shape.
- Top with the strawberries, blueberries and granola.
- Place in the freezer until the yogurt is firm, about 3 hours.
- Cut into 12-15 pieces, and enjoy cold.
- Store leftovers in the freezer.

Swapped the crunch, kept the munch ✨ Chips out, roasted chickpeas in — and I’m not just talking about snacking smarter, I’m talking about snacking stronger.

Potato Chips are tasty, sure, but they’re high in empty calories, unhealthy fats, and low in nutrients. Roasted Chickpeas are a plant-based powerhouse they have:

- More fiber, meaning better digestion and keeps you full longer.
- More protein, which supports muscle repair and keeps cravings in check
- Less fat, which is always good for your heart
- Complex carbs, mean steadier energy and no crash.

If you are interested in trying a very easy recipe, here is one to try out!

Ingredients
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon chili powder
• 1 pinch sea salt
• 1 pinch ground black pepper
• 1 dash crushed red pepper
• 1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained

Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Whisk oil, cumin, garlic powder, chili powder, sea salt, black pepper, and red pepper together in a small bowl; add chickpeas and toss to coat. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet.
3. Roast in the preheated oven, stirring occasionally, until nicely browned and slightly crispy, about 45 minutes.

Snack with purpose.💡
