When it comes to flavor and satisfaction, ice cream is a clear 10 out of 10. But its also packed with sugar, calories and sometimes artificial additives, so from a health-conscious perspective, it feels like something you should only eat once in a while and certainly not every day.

What if you did eat ice cream every day, though? Would it actually destroy your health? We asked some registered dietitians, and heres what they had to say.

Is it bad to eat ice cream every day?

Tamar Samuels , a registered dietitian and co-founder of Culina Health, is hesitant to label any food (or the frequency with which one eats it) as good or bad.

Doing this can trigger feelings of shame, guilt and fear, potentially leading to an unhealthy relationship with food, she said. Plus, everyone has their own nutritional needs that can vary wildly from person to person.

Maggie Michalczyk , a registered dietitian and founder of Once Upon a Pumpkin, had a similar take.

I dont like classifying one type of food as bad or that you are bad if you eat XYZ, but as we know, there are more nutritious foods and less nutritious foods out there, she said. Ice cream is a calorie-dense, high-sugar, high-fat food that can be enjoyed in moderation in a healthy diet.
