Nutritionist Discusses Daily Protein Needs on CBS Mornings

Nutritionist Keri Glassman appeared on the CBS Mornings program to explain current protein intake guidelines. Glassman stated that recommendations have increased in recent years and outlined methods for meeting daily targets through ordinary foods.

She noted that earlier advice often set lower daily amounts than current guidance. The segment covered how adults can adjust portions of meat, dairy, beans, and nuts to reach the revised targets.

Glassman listed simple meal additions such as Greek yogurt, eggs, or lentils that raise total protein without major diet changes. She said these adjustments can be made at breakfast, lunch, or dinner using items already found in many kitchens.
