FREE CEU: “Added Sugars and Non-Sugar Sweeteners: A Review of Current Recommendations, Scientific Evidence, and Future Research Needs”
Thursday 7/10 at 11am PT
The Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) recommends that adults limit added sugars intake to less than 10% of their total calories and dietary guidance and policies over the last several decades have strongly focused on reducing added sugar intake.1 However, despite a significant decrease in added sugar intake obesity rates continues to rise and efforts to lower added sugars have significantly increased the use of alternative ingredients, particularly non-sugar sweeteners, in the food supply. RDs are uniquely qualified to support consumers in ensuring that added sugar intake aligns with dietary recommendations. Furthermore, dietitians are well-positioned to communicate with consumers about the role of non-sugar sweeteners and food and how ingredient choices impact broader dietary and health goals. Join Rosanne Rust, MS, RDN, and Allison Sylvetsky, PhD for a webinar that will present the latest guidance regarding added sugars and non-sugar sweeteners and further dietitians’ efforts to make evidence-based recommendations.

FREE Webinar: “Diet for Depression: Understanding the Gut-Brain Connection for Mental Health”
Friday 7/11 at 12pm PT
