    Should You Follow the New Food Pyramid? A Nutritionist Explains

    The new food pyramid is getting a lot of attention, and with all the hype, it’s clear there’s more to it than just a graphic. In today’s episode, I’m exposing the truth behind these guidelines, why they changed, what’s missing, and how to approach health choices free from bias or confusion. I’ll explore why it’s important to view this new pyramid through a lens of clarity rather than emotion, and how understanding your body, behavior, and beliefs is crucial to achieving real health rather than just following rules. I’m also offering my personal perspective on the pyramid’s strengths and weaknesses, and a new, balanced outlook on nutrition to help you serve your body and soul well. Conclusion: The new food pyramid may be controversial, but it offers a clearer path to understanding how to nourish your body with whole foods. Real health goes beyond guidelines, though. You need to understand yourself and your needs. Start focusing on what serves your body, and make intentional choices that align with your goals.

Sign up for Carrie’s exclusive BS Club now: https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/bsclub Between the endless health trends and “must-do” habits, wellness can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re trying to juggle work, family, and everything else.

I’ll explain how our brains are wired to resist change and why the constant pursuit of weight loss can keep us stuck in a cycle of self-sabotage.

If you’re tired of constantly starting over, this episode is a glimpse of how you can make progress without burnout. Conclusion: You don’t need to be perfect to be healthy. By focusing on small changes and making health a reflection of your identity, you can finally break free from the cycle of overwhelm and burnout.

    If You Want Weight Loss, Stop Setting New Year’s Resolutions (Do This Instead)

    Every January starts with renewed hope, new meal plans, and gym subscriptions, but somehow ends in frustration, guilt, and the feeling that you are the problem. Don’t believe that feeling. In today’s episode, I’m unpacking why New Year’s resolutions and diets fail at such staggering rates and why it has nothing to do with willpower or discipline. I walk you through what’s really happening inside your brain when you try to make big changes all at once, and why “self-sabotage” is actually self-preservation. We talk about why restriction always leads to rebellion, why perfection guarantees burnout, and why weight loss can’t be the goal if you truly want sustainable health. Plus, I introduce the concept of the 1% shift. This is how you stop starting over, build trust with your body, and finally create a lifestyle that lasts without rules, extremes, or falling off a wagon that never existed in the first place. Conclusion You are not broken. You don’t need more willpower. You need a different approach. When you stop trying to change everything at once and start building trust with your body, consistency becomes possible. Let this be the year you stop starting over and finally build something that lasts. In This Episode: - Why New Year's resolutions and diets fail - Building a healthy relationship with your body - How the brain responds to change - The power of small changes and a strong why - Morning routine for successful behavior change Mentioned in the Episode: -Carrie’s morning time guide: https://www.carrielupoli.com/morning -Carrie’s Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/carrie_lupoli/ Join the waiting list for Carrie’s upcoming book, From Corset to Crown! -Sign up here: https://www.carrielupoli.com/corsettocrown Listen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel: -Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/diet-disruptors/id1507293016 -Follow and listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0zfk9YgYTM95RVKqcW3VGF?si=1a863a22bee5439f -Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@carrieLupoliofficial/podcasts?sub_confirmation=1 Connect with Carrie Lupoli: Website – https://www.carrielupoli.com/homepage Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/carrie_lupoli/ Podcast Blog – https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/blog Other Related Episodes: Looking for more tips to optimize your health?

    The Simple Habits That Are Reversing Chronic Illness: (The Powers Family Series Part 2)

    I’m back with Nicole Powers, a courageous mom who opened the door to her family’s real-life health transformation. Nicole didn’t come to us looking for quick tips or better habits. She came because she truly believed her life depended on it. She was scared, depleted, and watching her health decline while knowing her children were learning from everything she did. A few weeks into learning how to stabilize blood sugar, fuel her body properly, and live with intention, Nicole is already experiencing powerful internal shifts. We talk about what her life looked like before, the small but meaningful changes she’s making now, and how those changes are reshaping her kids’ habits, confidence, and understanding of food. If you ever felt so exhausted, sick, and overwhelmed by your health struggles, Nicole’s story proves that transformation can begin even at rock bottom and ripple through your entire family’s history. Conclusion: Healing doesn’t start with perfection. It starts with awareness and one small decision at a time. If Nicole’s story resonates with you, let it remind you that your body is always listening and ready to respond when you show up with consistency and care. In This Episode: - Life before the shift: skipping meals & sugar reliance - The power of education & intentionality - Starting the day with protein & changing family dinners - The birthday cake moment: when food noise disappeared - Progress with fasting glucose levels - Modeling self-care, discipline, and confidence to her kids We’ve Made Nutrition Simple For Kids! -To learn more about how we are working to help kids around the world get healthy, follow our children's nutritional literacy page at https://www.instagram.com/pfcpals/# Join the waiting list for Carrie’s upcoming book, From Corset to Crown! -Sign up here: https://www.carrielupoli.com/corsettocrown Listen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel: -Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/diet-disruptors/id1507293016 -Follow and listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0zfk9YgYTM95RVKqcW3VGF?si=1a863a22bee5439f -Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@carrieLupoliofficial/podcasts?sub_confirmation=1 Connect with Nicole Powers: Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/laydeehorne_/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/nicole.powers.332 Connect with Carrie Lupoli: Website – https://www.carrielupoli.com/homepage Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/carrie_lupoli/ Podcast Blog – a href="https://www.disruptivenutrition.com/blog" rel="noopener noreferrer"...
