Your favorite Small Habits Matter dietitians, Stephanie Schnaufer, MBA, RD, Juhi Shah, MS, RD, LDN, and I I were featured in Food & Wine’s recent article, “Americans Are Eating More Protein-Packed Snacks — Dietitians Say You May Not Need Them.”
The article explores common questions about getting enough protein and why “protein maxxing” may not be the solution we all think it is.
We share practical guidance on looking beyond protein grams alone and considering the bigger picture: overall dietary patterns, nutritional quality, individual needs, and what actually works for your lifestyle.
We love to see realistic, sustainable approaches to nutrition at the center of the conversation especially when discussing small 👏🏼habit 👏🏼 formation 👏🏼.
Huge shout out to Stephanie Gravalese for bringing nutrition experts to the table to help cut through the noise on social media. Make sure to check it out!
