New dietary guidelines recommend more dairy, meat and fats: What to know

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. wants Americans to “return to the basics” when it comes to the food they eat.

The U.S. dietary guidelines just got a makeover — and a new, inverted food pyramid — that puts nutrient-dense proteins and full-fat dairy at the top and whole grains at the bottom.

The guidelines are co-signed by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the central figure of the controversial “Make America Healthy Again,” or MAHA, movement, and Brooke L. Rollins, the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

“To Make America Healthy Again, we must return to the basics. American households must prioritize diets built on whole, nutrient-dense foods — protein, dairy, vegetables, fruits, healthy fats, and whole grains,” the dietary guidelines read. “Paired with a dramatic reduction in highly processed foods laden with refined carbohydrates, added sugars, excess sodium, unhealthy fats, and chemical additives, this approach can change the health trajectory for so many Americans.”
