from Exam Room Nutrition: Where Busy Clinicians Learn About Nutrition

Ever skip the food label convo because it feels too complicated—or let’s be honest, you’re short on time? In this episode, I’m sharing a few clips from this month’s Nutrition Grand Rounds that’ll help you decode the label and teach it in a way your patients actually understand. We’ll cover what patients are really looking at, how to explain percent daily value, and why front-of-package claims like “multi-grain” or “no added sugar” can be totally misleading. Join Nutrition Grand Rounds hereMastering the Food Label Blog Post Any Questions?
