Ep 74 - The Netherlands' New Food Guide: A Bold Step Toward Health and Sustainability

The Netherlands has updated its national dietary guidelines, and they may be among the most progressive in the world.

In this Summer Short, Michelle and Kevin explore the country's newly revised "Wheel of Five," which places greater emphasis on plant-based eating, provides clear weekly food targets, and considers both personal health and environmental sustainability.

From reducing red and processed meat to increasing legumes and offering practical tools like government-supported food swaps and meal planning apps, the new guidance goes beyond simply telling people to "eat healthier."

Join us as we discuss what makes these recommendations so groundbreaking, how they compare with Canada's Food Guide, and why practical, measurable nutrition advice could help people make lasting changes.
