Dietary Guidelines for America, Part 1
December 16, 2014
The Dietary Guidelines for America (DGA) started with the now much-maligned “Food Pyramid” and morphed into "My Healthy Plate”; nonetheless, Americans are growing fatter and sicker, threatening to sink our economy under a burden of unsustainable medical costs. Adele Hite, Director of the Healthy Nation Coalition, thinks it’s time for the DGA to be completely revamped. She takes issue with its "one-size all” approach to saturated fat, cholesterol and sodium reduction. Hite argues that the recommendations are not grounded in sound nutritional science, but rather, are ideological and arbitrary. They have confused the American public, have resulted in the proliferation of poor quality “low-fat” foods containing harmful refined carbohydrates and Omega 6 oils, and have inadvertently undermined our national health. And she’s taking action, having drafted a letter to the U.S. Secretaries of Health and Human Services and the Agriculture Department. Please take part in this important initiative by clicking HERE.
