RFK Jr explains new dietary guidelines for Americans (1 min, 57 sec): - Focus on high-quality proteins and healthy fats; reduce emphasis on carbohydrates. - First explicit warnings against ultra-processed foods and additives. - Lift restrictions on full-fat dairy and natural fats. - Stricter limits on added sugars and non-nutritive sweeteners (avoid entirely for young children). - Support for lower-carb approaches where evidence shows benefits. - New emphasis on gut health via fiber-rich and fermented foods. Core Recommendations: - Proteins (eggs, meat, seafood, beans, nuts) in every meal. - Healthy fats from avocados, olives, nuts, full-fat dairy, olive oil. - At least 3 servings vegetables and 2 servings whole fruits daily. - 3 servings dairy daily (full-fat options encouraged). - Whole grains preferred; limit refined grains. - Limit/avoid: ultra-processed foods, sugary drinks, added sugars, excess sodium.
