Nutrition Nugget: Meals on Repeat

Nutrition Nugget: Meals on Repeat

Author: Jenn Trepeck June 19, 2026 Duration: 12:52

Nutrition Nugget! Bite-sized bonus episodes offer tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn is talking about meals on repeat and whether eating the same foods over and over aids in weight loss. A new study claims that less variety in your diet is associated with better results, but is that the full picture? Jenn dives into the research, the numbers, and what they really mean, while questioning whether a 12-week study tells the whole story. Does sticking to the same meals set you up for long-term success, or could it backfire down the road? Tune in to hear Jenn break it all down and find out what she really thinks.
