Eating MORE Fresh Produce with Jaclyn London: Nutrition Director, Good Housekeeping Institute at Hearst Magazines

 

โ€œMore vegetable and more fruit – thatโ€™s easily the most important thing that is involved in good nutrition and what nutrition really meansโ€

In episode 8, Lori sits down with Jackie London from Good Housekeeping. Jackie writes and reports on nutrition news and trends, noteworthy products, โ€œmyth-bustingโ€ diet fads, weight-loss tips, eating advice, and diet stories for the magazine. She also conducts GHโ€™s taste-tests, in which sheโ€™ll establish nutritional criteria for products in a food category and then conduct large-scale taste-tests to report in the magazine.

โ€œItโ€™s not nutrition until itโ€™s eatenโ€

Jackie also reviews all of the food products that want to use the Good Housekeeping Seal, and evaluates packaged food claims (โ€œlow-sodium,โ€ โ€œhigh-fiberโ€) to make sure theyโ€™re legit. ย Jackie is one of the visionaries behind the Good Housekeeping Nutritionist Approved Emblem, which launched in 2016 and serves as a new Good Housekeeping Seal for food products.

โ€œItโ€™s only one day at a time and one meal at a timeโ€

Jackieโ€™s work is featured in the โ€œAsk Jackieโ€ column in Good Housekeeping Magazine as well as the Health section of the GH website. https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/health/
