Official eating advice
Dietary guidelines are official recommendations about what to eat for good health, typically issued by government agencies.
They address food groups, portion sizes, nutrients to limit, and eating patterns: The new dietary guidelines recommend reducing sugar intake.
Updated periodically as nutrition science evolves, they shape school lunch programs, food labels, and public health messaging.
