Big shift in the U.S. dietary guidelines today—and honestly, it’s about time.
The updated guidance moves away from ultra-processed foods and refined carbs and back toward what actually supports health:
✔️ Real protein
✔️ Healthy fats
✔️ Fruits & vegetables
✔️ Whole foods over food-like products
This isn’t trendy. This is common sense catching up with science.
If you’ve been confused by nutrition advice over the years, you’re not crazy—the system’s been messy. Today’s update is a step in the right direction.
We talk a lot about nervous system health, inflammation, and sustainable wellness—and nutrition is part of that conversation.
Today’s updated dietary guidelines bring the focus back to real food: nourishing protein, healthy fats, fruits, vegetables, and fewer ultra-processed foods that tax the body over time.
Simple. Grounded. Supportive.
Worth a read if you’re working toward long-term health instead of quick fixes.
Under President Trump’s leadership, common sense, scientific integrity, and accountability have been restored to federal food and health policy.
For decades, the Dietary Guidelines favored corporate interests over common-sense, science-driven advice to improve the health of Americans.
That ends today.
The new Dietary Guidelines call for prioritizing high-quality protein, healthy fats, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains—and avoiding highly processed foods and refined carbohydrates.
