Natalie Rizzo, registered dietitian and TODAY nutrition editor, has shared her top 10 tips on how to incorporate protein into your diet without overdoing it. She explains that the obsession with protein is not the healthiest way to approach your diet, as many of us are already getting plenty of protein in our meals, especially if we eat meat. A recent poll found that 89% of Americans eat meat, and many people center their meals around meat, suggesting that protein consumption is not an issue. However, Rizo suggests that the push to add a few extra grams of protein to everything from salad dressing to pasta to popcorn is sending consumers the wrong message. She also warns that no single food or nutrient will necessarily solve all of your health problems, and that just because something has more protein in it does not make it better for you. The official Dietary Guidelines can guide you on whether you're eating too little or just enough protein.
