Serena Marie, RD
You hear it on the show nearly every episode: Every body is different. Serena Marie, RD wants you to find your key strategies to sustainable, lifelong healthy nutrition. There were some trends in 2015 that Serena Marie, RD, recaps for us:
Trend 1: The clean-eating movement
Try to eat less processed foods (even whole grain pasta or whole bran cereal).
Swap from foods that have several items in the ingredients list to foods that have a single item or two.
Serena gives us the real deal on oatmeal.
She also touches on calorie counting and clean eating.
Trend 2: The If It Fits Your Macros (IIFYM) movement
Macronutrients are the main constituents of calories and are made up of fat, carb, or protein sources.
Balance your meals with fat (healthy oils), carbs, and protein.
In 2016, Serena would love to see a union of the trends—with the mindset of no guilt or self-shaming.
Check out the chromium information referenced in this segment by reading the article Micronutrients in Health and Disease.
