Reviewed by Sandy Costanza D’Youville College, Buffalo, NYThis is a jazzy, colorful, engaging video talking about the new recommended nutritional guidelines. As always recommendations for portion size, a variety of fruits and vegetables, healthy oils, lean meats and limited amounts of added sugar are discussed. The hosts are two young adults that can easily be identified with. In addition they are not suggesting drastic, unrealistic changes that are impossible to follow but small improvements which can make a dramatic change in one’s health. It is short, accessible, full of information with easy recommendations to follow. This is a great tool for health educators.
