What's wrong with the new US Dietary Guidelines?
The Trump administration has just released the latest iteration of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, the 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines, to rapturous applause from many in the so-called health freedom movement. But even a cursory examination of the Guidelines reveals that they are confusing and contradictory, while a deeper read of the (purportedly) scientific foundation underlying them uncovers significant biases, conflicts of interest and highly selective reporting of the scientific literature on nutrition and health. In short, these new guidelines are a hot mess.
As always, your feedback is greatly appreciated:
