RFKjr unveils new dietary pyramid

The guidelines will set limits on added sugar and encourage diets that include meat and dairy.

“Protein and healthy fats are essential and were wrongly discouraged in prior dietary guidelines,” Kennedy said. “We are ending the war on saturated fats.”

As an introduction to the new guidelines, Kennedy and Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins called for a “dramatic reduction” in the consumption of “highly processed foods laden with refined carbohydrates, added sugars, excess sodium, unhealthy fats, and chemical additives.”

“This approach can change the health trajectory for so many Americans,” they wrote, pointing out that more than 70% of American adults are overweight or obese due to a diet that has “become reliant on highly processed foods and coupled with a sedentary lifestyle.”

For years, Americans have been advised to limit saturated fat, and the new pyramid is facing criticism.

“I’m very disappointed in the new pyramid that features red meat and saturated fat sources at the very top, as if that’s something to prioritize. It does go against decades and decades of evidence and research,” says Christopher Gardner, a nutrition expert at Stanford University. He was a member of the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee, which reviewed all the nutrition evidence.

The guidelines also elevate cheese and other dairy to the top of the pyramid, paving the way for the option of full-fat milk and other dairy products in school meals. There’s growing evidence, based on nutrition science, that dairy foods can be beneficial.

Is that for real?

It doesn’t sound totally stupid, so probably not.
