The Happy Eating Podcast

Author: Carolyn Williams PhD, RD & Brierley Horton, MS, RD

Is it possible to eat your way to a better mood? Can foods really impact how the brain makes you think and feel? The Happy Eating Podcast was created after we couldnt find the information that we needed for ourselves and our families. Join us as we break down the connection between food and mental wellness as we explore how food, diet, supplements, and daily habits can make for truly Happy Eating.

Episode 363
Thursday, 15 January, 2026

The newest edition of the Dietary Guidelines dropped earlier this month—and if your news feed looks anything like ours, you’ve probably seen a lot of hot takes already. But what’s worth your attention, and what can you safely scroll past? In today’s episode, we break it all down from a dietitian’s perspective: what we love about the new guidelines, what surprised us, what doesn’t quite add up, and—most importantly—what changes you should make at home. Consider this episode your clear and practical guide to the latest Dietary Guidelines. Let’s dive in! Thank you for listening to The Happy Eating Podcast.
