The new report gets some things right - better diets,
more activity, less exposure to chemicals. But ignoring solid science in favor of “whim & whimsy” (like deep-frying in beef tallow) won’t improve children’s health. Evidence-based nutrition will.

Congrats to lead authors, Dalia Perelman & Elisa Caffrey, on publishing "Unpacking Food Fermentation" in Advances in Nutrition.
They explore what we know (and don’t) about fermented foods & why clearer definitions & research matter.

RFK Jr. & influencers call seed oils "poison," but research shows they can be part of a healthy diet. The real issue? Misinformation. As @neiltyson says, “Science is true, whether or not you believe in it.”

Nutrition topics can feel like a battleground in the media, but with the right context, there’s actually more consensus than controversy. I unpack this and clear up confusion during a recent Mayo Clinic podcast.

As part of the '25 US Dietary Advisory Committee, we recommended putting beans, peas, & lentils at the top of MyPlate's protein section instead of meat.
Why? They have protein, fiber, and no saturated fat.
Small swap, big impact!
