🍽️✨ NEW Dietary Guidelines for Americans – Eat Real Food! ✨🍎
We’re excited to share the latest nutrition guidance to help you make healthy choices for you and your family! These updated Dietary Guidelines for Americans focus on whole, nutrient-dense foods that support overall health and help reduce the risk of chronic disease.
Here’s what they emphasize:
🥩 Prioritize high-quality protein foods at every meal — including eggs, poultry, seafood, legumes, nuts, and plant-based proteins.
🥛 Include dairy (such as milk, yogurt, and cheese) as a source of protein, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals.
🥗 Eat a variety of colorful vegetables and fruits daily.
🥑 Choose healthy fats from whole foods — like nuts, seeds, olive oil (and even full-fat dairy in moderation).
🥖 Focus on whole grains instead of refined grains.
🚫 Reduce ultra-processed foods, added sugars, and refined carbohydrates.
💧 Hydration matters: Choose water and unsweetened beverages as your go-to choice.
These guidelines are simple: eat real food that nourishes your body and supports a healthier life. 💪🍉
