We all love to talk about nutrition. We are fascinated by the next fad diet, wondering what the hot new trend is. And the food industry, media, and many big health companies feed off of this. They pump us with quick fixes, promote processed “diet” foods, and send an over-simplified and confusing message, that leaves us wondering, “So, what SHOULD I eat?!” On top of that, some of our nation’s experts are still telling us that all foods fit, that it is just about the calories, and you can enjoy anything you want in moderation. First, just because it is edible, doesn’t mean it should be considered food. Second, it’s NOT just about the calories. It’s about the quality. Finally, what the heck is moderation? With a surplus of nutrition information out there, it can be difficult to differentiate nutrition tabloids from nutrition truth. We’re here to help set the record straight.
