The Wendi Irlbeck Show – Episode 2U.S. Dietary Guidelines: Then vs. Now — What Changed and What Didn’t

Welcome back to The Wendi Irlbeck Show—a weekly podcast designed to fuel your faith, strengthen your body, and sharpen your mind.

Hosted by Wendi Irlbeck—Christian author, registered dietitian, certified sports nutritionist, speaker, entrepreneur, and nonprofit leader—this show delivers biblically grounded, evidence-based conversations that bring clarity to health, leadership, and daily life.

In This Episode

The U.S. Dietary Guidelines have changed their language—but has the truth actually changed?

In Episode 2, Wendi breaks down:

• The difference between old vs. new dietary guidelines
• What changed in the 2025–2030 recommendations—and what did not
• Why confusion around food has caused more harm than carbs, fat, or protein ever have
• The role of stewardship, discipline, and contentment in how we eat
• Why whole foods, adequate protein, and fueling according to need remain the foundation

This episode cuts through noise, numbers, and diet culture to bring common sense, clarity, and conviction—rooted in both Scripture and physiology.

This Show Is For

• Athletes and student-athletes
• Parents and coaches
• Educators, trainers, and dietitians
• Business owners and young entrepreneurs
• Anyone seeking better health and a deeper walk with Christ

Each 30-minute episode blends faith, fitness, nutrition, leadership, and real-life application, equipping you with tools you can actually use—without overwhelm.
