As new evidence reshapes our understanding of dietary fats, nutrition professionals are challenged to navigate an increasingly complex landscape, where “good vs. bad” fails to tell the full story. With the release of the 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, there is a renewed focus on the health impact of different fatty acids and the food matrix containing those fatty acids.  Using scientific evidence, case examples and real-world translation, participants will walk away prepared to clarify confusion, reframe client conversations and deliver food-first, culturally relevant guidance that reflects the latest science; equipping RDNs to lead the conversation on what “healthy fat” really means in 2026 and beyond.
