The new dietary guidelines for Americans will improve the food in schools, hospitals, nursing homes, the military, and more. These updated guidelines will require a complete overhaul of the supply chains!

For over 40 years, the foundation of our food pyramid was whole grains. It was recommended that we consume 6 to 11 servings of grains every single day.

This change isn’t based on mere opinion; the data has been accumulating for years. Ultra-processed foods are now being targeted as the primary driver of 90% of chronic disease. For decades, ultra-processed food companies were protected by silence, but not anymore.

Let’s take a look at the old recommendations and see how they compare to the updated dietary recommendations:
• 6-11 servings of carbohydrates
• Low fat
• Low cholesterol
• Low saturated fats
• Focus on calories
• 0.8 grams of protein per kg of body weight

Updated diet recommendations:
• Inverted food pyramid
• Reduce ultra-processed foods
• Increase animal-based protein
• 1.2 to 1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight

The protein increase alone can significantly improve your biochemistry, hormones, blood sugar, and more.

They are now working on a definition for ultra-processed food. Whoever controls the definition controls the outcome. By focusing on the biological definition of food, that which is eaten to sustain life; promote the growth and repair of tissues; nourishment, anything that doesn’t fit this definition would not be classified as food.

There’s one missing piece to the updated dietary recommendations: the root cause of chronic disease. Insulin resistance may be indirectly affected by these changes, but it may not be sufficient for individuals who are already insulin resistant. It’s vital to address the frequency of eating to get to the root of chronic illness.

Every time you eat, whether it’s healthy or unhealthy food, you spike insulin. This contributes to insulin resistance. Healthy eating may prevent insulin resistance, but it may not be enough to reverse it.

Although seed oils and industrial starches were not specifically mentioned, the new inverted food pyramid is a huge step in the right direction.
