About this listen
Are the new guidelines a win for real food and nutrient density, or do they leave us with more questions than clarity? Join Dr. Sabrina Falquier on Culinary Medicine Recipe as she shares her expert perspective on what’s helpful, what’s missing and what deserves a closer look in the federal government’s latest nutrition guidance.
Rather than rehashing food pyramids or plate graphics, this episode looks at how topics like Ultra-Processed Foods (UPF), protein prioritization, added sugars, and full-fat dairy are showing up in the conversation, and where confusion often creeps in.
Dr. Falquier offers a practical, evidence-based take on the good, the bad and the messy realities of translating national guidelines into everyday eating.
