In a world flooded with nutrition advice and trendy diets, registered dietitians are rethinking some of the most basic assumptions about healthy eating. As highlighted in a recent article, experts now emphasize that nutrition is about more than just physical health—it’s also about fueling your brain, which requires about 120 to 130 grams of carbohydrates daily.
The idea that only “whole” or “home-cooked” meals are best is being challenged, as not everyone has the time or resources to prepare them. Dietitians also stress that being thin does not automatically mean being healthy; adopting healthy habits matters more than the number on the scale. Snacking, often maligned, can actually help maintain stable energy and mood. The best approach? Implement healthy habits gradually rather than making drastic changes overnight, and don’t overlook the importance of fiber, which most people lack.
Ultimately, nutrition information shouldn’t be the only factor in food choices—satisfaction, culture, and joy matter, too. For more insights, see the original nutrition information article on MSN.
