New @jamapeds study states that a 2010 change in school meals (#NSLP) reduced avg student BMI by less than 0.05 points. Underwhelming. Yet experts conclude it "underscores the important impact of the [NSLP] on reducing excess weight gain" @bigfatsurprise medpagetoday.com/pediatrics/…

Hate meal planning as much as me? All is not lost, friend. Use my 4-step method to lazy meal planning to get #realfood meals on the table (fast!) w/o an elaborate “plan.” lilynicholsrdn.com/lazy-meal… Plus, be sure to check out @eatthebutter + @ahhite’s book, Vintage Dinner Plans!

I'm proud to share the news article I wrote for @DietDoctor on research about how ketogenic diets may help people suffering from eating disorders. (Y'all know how uneasy I am about this topic - I'm happy to have this excellent foundation.) dietdoctor.com/ketogenic-die…

"The Ominous Rise of Toddler Milk," marketed by infant formula companies, trying to get moms to feed 2-3-year olds a corn-syrup-vegetable-oil concoction, high in sugar and devoid of nutrients...rather than natural milk. Don't be fooled by fake food. theatlantic.com/health/archi…

Snacking > solid meals may very well be driving obesity. It’s the opposite of fasting. When you’re snacking all the time, the body never has a chance to recover from glucose etc. Mid-morning/afternoon snacks at school mean kids now eating virtually all day long
More people are turning to snacks over meals. People are swapping meals for small bites to meet their personal needs - especially in developing markets. Read the first ever #StateofSnacking report to learn more about global snacking trends expi.co/01nZ26

Who's raising a hand for "National Lard Day?" C'mon, don't be shy! Lard + butter were the two main fats used in cooking in Europe+US before early 20th C, when industry invented factory-made seed oils (using a metal catalyst). Yummy! I prefer natural fats. bit.ly/2r0QXGR

Amazing! Please watch this internal medicine doc say it all with poise (and a little humor). She implores the DGA advisory committee to change guidelines to reduce sugar and carbs to help those with diabetes and prediabetes... perhaps half of adults. KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE!!

Calorie counting has been central to people's understanding of weight gain for over a century. Given that the great majority of diets fail—could the calorie be one of the biggest delusions in dietary history?

Sometimes I need to pinch myself to remember that, yes we are now commonly taking people OFF diabetes meds! Here’s an article in Diet Doctor about a new guide to help do it safely

One sign of a dysfunctional paradigm (energy imbalance causes obesity, in this case) is researchers repeating the same studies again and again and again over decades. And they're finding the same thing they always did. Insanity? Or the wrong paradigm? nymag.com/news/sports/38001/
