People are often frustrated that nutrition advice keeps changing.  In the 1980s, everyone was told to eat less fat.  But then in the 1990s, carbs became the bad guys.  In the next decade it was trans fat.  Now sodium is looming on the horizon as the next evil nutrient.  No wonder consumers are confused.

The problem is that nutrition is a young science, and a complex science.  Every day more and more research is done, and it changes what we have held to be true up until that point.  This is the reason for Nutrition Outlook.  My goal through this blog is to get you to think about nutrition as it stands today, and to think about the subject of what you eat more broadly, more comprehensively.  My goal is to connect the dots for you, and make healthy food more of a reality and a joy in your life.

Advice on nutrition abounds everywhere, and I get that.  So you may be asking why you should trust me, right?  First and foremost, you should trust me because I am a registered dietitian, trained to understand the nuances of nutrition and communicate them in meaningful messages to consumers.  The rest is something we’ll build over time – you’ll trust me if I can help you live a better life in some small way.
