145 | New 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans – What You Need to Know [Part 2]

Have you seen the new 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans and wondered if you should follow them? You may have seen talk about them on the news and social media, and don’t know quite what to believe. The slogan of eating more ‘real foods’ sounds good though, and the New Pyramid diagram seems to show that all foods - including butter, steak, whole milk and cheese – would be fine to eat and that we don’t really need to worry about the amounts eaten. But DO we need to worry? And what about the recommendations about protein and nutritional adequacy issues in vegan and vegetarian diets?   Let’s talk about this. In this episode, we’ll take a deeper dive into the New Dietary Guidelines for Americans and look at 3 more KEY things you need to know about them, to inform your own health. We’ll touch on protein, what the Guidelines say about vegan and vegetarian diets, and what has been found through research.
