More protein? More fiber? What diet trends should you follow?

from All Sides with Amy Juravich

Pop-tarts, Cheerios, Eggo waffles, and Starbucks lattes. What do they have in common? They all now have protein versions of the original product.Walking through a grocery store and ordering at restaurants you can't help but notice protein this and protein that.But by the time you had the option to order off Chipotle’s high-protein menu, fiber came along.The risk of colon cancer is increasing in younger ages, and fiber is a key factor. About 95% of American adults and children do not consume the recommended amounts. This has gained attention on social media.Social media has surfaced terms like protein and fiber “maxxing,” focused on consuming high amounts of these nutrients.It's true, protein and fiber are both very important. But how much is too much? And how do we know which social media diet trends to trust and which ones are just junk?Guests:Ari Bond, lab operations analyst and human nutrition instructor, Ohio State UniversityCandace Pumper, registered dietitian, Ohio State University Wexner Medical CenterDaiva E.
