Unpopular opinions from a dietitian 🚨

Brandy’s sharing the hard truths that might tick you off… but could also change your health for good:

1️⃣ You can’t out-exercise or out-supplement a bad diet
2️⃣ GLP-1 meds don’t teach sustainable habits
3️⃣ Weekend food binges can undo weekday progress

🍎 Want your kids to get more excited about real food? Try getting excited about it with them.⁠

Instead of pushing his kids to try an apple, Captain of takes a different approach:⁠

✨ “Wow, this is the best apple I’ve ever had!”⁠
✨ “It’s so sweet!”⁠
✨ “Did you know they harvest these in October?”⁠

That genuine enthusiasm can turn an everyday apple into something your child is curious about trying, too.⁠

And they’ve seen it work beyond their own families. After Captain sent apples to his daughter’s preschool, three different parents told him their children came home asking to eat apples. 🍎⁠

In this episode of Dishing Up Nutrition, Captain and Cat share how they’re making real food exciting for kids by telling the stories behind it—where it grows, who grows it, and why it’s worth exploring.⁠

Grass-fed. Grass-finished. 100% grass-fed. What does it all mean?! 🥩🤔

If you’ve ever stood in front of the meat case wondering what you’re actually buying, you’re not alone.

In this episode of Dishing Up Nutrition, Matt Meyer of breaks down what to look for when buying grass-fed beef—and why he recommends looking beyond the front of the package to understand how the cattle were actually raised.

His first shopping tip? Look for “100% grass-fed.” Then learn about the practices behind the brand or shop somewhere you trust to help answer your questions.

Can’t fall asleep? Waking up at 2 a.m.? Or is your brain still working through tomorrow’s to-do list when your head hits the pillow? 😴

The right sleep support may depend on why you’re struggling in the first place.
Here are 5 sleep supplements our dietitians recommend considering:

🌙 Magnesium Glycinate — a foundational option for general sleep support, muscle relaxation, restless legs, and nighttime charley horses.
🧠 L-Theanine — may help quiet a racing mind without making you feel drowsy. It can also pair well with magnesium when you feel “exhausted but wired.”
💤 5-HTP — may support both sleep and mood because your body uses it along the pathway to make serotonin and melatonin.*
☀️ Vitamin D3 — low vitamin D levels are linked with poor sleep quality, so this is one to test, not guess.

Which one is right for you? Read the full blog for our dietitians’ guide to matching sleep supplements with your specific sleep challenges. https://www.weightandwellness.com/resources/articles/best-sleep-supplements

*5-HTP can interact with medications that affect serotonin. Talk with your healthcare provider before using it if you take these medications.

If you’ve been working hard to lose weight but feel like your body isn’t responding the way it used to, insulin resistance could be part of the puzzle.

When cells stop responding well to insulin, your body produces more of it—and chronically high insulin signals your body to store fat rather than burn it. You might notice stubborn belly weight, constant hunger or sugar cravings, or that afternoon energy crash.

The encouraging part? Insulin resistance is reversible. 🙌

Instead of another quick fix, start with the basics: balanced meals with animal protein, healthy fat, and nutrient-rich carbohydrates from plants. Add regular movement and quality sleep, and you can start supporting steadier blood sugar and a healthier metabolism.

👉 Read the full blog and learn how insulin resistance works, the signs to watch for, and practical ways to start restoring your metabolism. https://www.weightandwellness.com/resources/articles/insulin-resistance-blame-your-slow-metabolism

Ready for more hands-on support? Our 12-week Nutrition 4 Weight Loss program teaches you how to put these real-food principles into practice, and new students receive two 1:1 counseling sessions with a nutritionist or dietitian.
