Author: Achieving Your Best January 14, 2022 Duration: 32:33

Happy 2022! Today, we are going to talk about 10 trends we are seeing for nutrition for the new year. Trends are different from fads because trends are more a direction that we are headed and continue going for longer vs a fad that is usually short lived. We are not going to dive into a lot of research on each of these because we could do a whole podcast on each one, and we will cover some of these topics in the future!  


1. Sustainability  

2. Nutrition to help you age well  

3. Plant based eating  

4. Eating to support your immune system  

5. Sea veggies  

6. Quality food  

7. Intuitive Eating  

8. Meal prep  

9. Local, seasonal, and regional foods  

10. Changing negative COVID related habits and maintaining positive ones
