Applications of the New DGA

 

Guest: Tara Schmidt, RDN, LD

Host: Kyla Lara-Breitinger, M.D., M.H.S.

 

Every five years, new dietary guidelines for Americans are put out by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). The Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2025-2030 (10th edition) was recently published in early 2026 and has sparked some controversy with not only its visual icon, but some of its emphases as well. In this second episode reviewing the new DGA, Dr. Kyla-Lara Breitinger and Tara Schmidt, RDN, LD review what the new guidelines advise and what may be confusing for consumers.  

 

Topics Discussed:

  • Do you want to share a bit of history around the DGAs?
  • What recommendations from the new DGAs align with longstanding nutrition science?
  • Are there elements of the new guidelines that raise any concern?
  • What should be some key nutritional focuses for Americans, given what we know about their health status?
  •
