A Registered Dietitian's Take on the New Dietary Guidelines | Ep 243

In this episode, I’m breaking down the newly released Dietary Guidelines for Americans and giving my honest take on them.We’ll talk about what these guidelines are actually meant for, why they exist, and where they make sense… and where they don’t.I go over things like MyPlate, the emphasis on protein, some confusing or contradictory recommendations, and the changes around grains and vegetables.More importantly, we talk about why blanket guidelines don’t always work great for individuals—and how to use this info without overthinking or feeling like you have to follow it perfectly.This isn’t about bashing the guidelines or blindly following them. It’s about understanding them, using common sense, and building a balanced approach to nutrition that actually fits real life.Be sure to share this episode with a family member, friend, or on your IG or FB stories so someone else who needs help can find it!
