info_outline‘New Dietary Guidelines Were Written by Authors With Strong Ties to the Food Industry’ and ‘Dietary Guidelines Are a Mixed Bag, Show Industry Influence, Says Physicians Committee’
The new Dietary Guidelines for Americans were written by authors with strong ties to the food industry (at least 7 of 9!) and they sidestepped longstanding federal legal protections by ignoring the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee’s recent scientific report and relying instead on the recommendations of a hastily assembled panel of industry insiders, without any oversight or input by the public.
