In January 2026 the US published a new set of Dietary Guidelines. These guidelines form the basis of advice to the public on diet and health and inform meals provided in schools, care homes etc. The new guidelines are very different from the previous guidelines and advocate avoidance of highly processed foods and emphasises the importance of protein in the diet.
In this talk we:
-
Describe the new US Dietary Guidelines
-
Describe how the new guidelines differ from previous US guidelines, and current UK guidelines
-
Describe some of the evidence underpinning the new guidelines
-
Consider what the UK could learn from the new US Dietary Guidelines
