A Healthy Alternative
to the New USDA Guidelines
“The Dietary Guidelines for Americans are the cornerstone of Federal nutrition policy and nutrition education activities.” So begins the press release page on which, two days ago, the USDA announced the release of the 2010 revamping of their recommendations for healthy eating. The press release itself acknowledges the “prevalence of overweight and obesity,” stating that “more than one-third of children and more than two-thirds of adults in the United States are overweight.” So then why are we offering more of the same ol’ recommendations which haven’t worked for over 30 years?
