The 2020-2025 edition of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans dropped over GW's winter break.
Since the first edition was published in 1980, the Dietary Guidelines for Americans have provided science-based advice on what to eat and drink to promote health, reduce risk of chronic disease, and meet nutrient needs. Jointly published by U.S. Departments of Agriculture (USDA) and of
Health and Human Services (HHS), the guidelines are updated at least every 5 years.
The questions that immediately come to mind are what's new, what changed, and what do we really need to know? So let’s get into it with our resident nutrition scientist and GWIM podcast co-host Dr. Leigh Frame!
