In this episode of Feed Me the Facts, Deanna sits down with Dr. Antonio Miranda—a proud Mexican-American, first-generation college graduate, registered dietitian, certified diabetes care and education specialist, researcher, educator, and author—to explore his groundbreaking work on “medical machismo” and health behaviors among Hispanic men and communities of color. Drawing from both research and lived experience, Antonio shares how culture, masculinity, poverty, religiosity, and generational experiences shape healthcare engagement, and why dietitians must move beyond textbook counseling approaches to truly connect with the populations they serve.
