Kate Schulz shares her unique perspective as both a ranch-raised dietitian and the nutrition expert for the New Mexico Beef Council, helping bridge the gap between food production and nutritional guidance.

• Family connection to agriculture spans generations, with her great-grandfather homesteading the Nebraska-Wyoming family ranch over 100 years ago
• Becoming a registered dietitian requires a master's degree, internship, national exam, and state licensure
• Common misconception that beef can't fit into heart-healthy diets contradicted by research studies showing lean beef's compatibility
• Three ounces of beef provides 25g of protein plus nine essential nutrients, making it naturally nourishing and sustaining
• Balanced protein consumption throughout the day (25-30g at meals, 10-15g at snacks) optimizes energy and satisfaction
• Leaner cuts of beef (look for "round" or "loin") provide flexibility for health-conscious meal planning
• The Sports Nutrition Game Plan offers free resources for high school athletes and coaches through NMAA - https://nmbeef.com/nutrition/sports-n...
• Small, consistent healthy choices are more sustainable than trying to make dramatic lifestyle changes all at once
• Beef jerky makes an excellent protein-rich snack option to avoid afternoon energy crashes Beef Jerky Trail Mix: https://www.beefitswhatsfordinner.com...
• Slow cooker recipes like Mississippi Pot Roast offer convenient, family-friendly meal solutions. Find the recipe on our website https://nmbeef.com/recipes/recipe/559...
