This episode covers: • Real Food Reset in U.S. Dietary Policy The new Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2025–2030 put real food back at the center of U.S. nutrition policy and take a direct swing at ultra processed foods, added sugar, and sugary drinks. Dave breaks down why this matters beyond personal dieting: these guidelines influence school meals, SNAP and WIC, federal feeding programs, and they shape what eventually shows up on labels and in public institutions. He also shares how biohackers can use this shift as leverage to push for better food environments in schools, workplaces, and hospitals. -Source: https://www.usda.gov/about-usda/news/press-releases/2026/01/07/kennedy-rollins-unveil-historic-reset-us-nutrition-policy-put-real-food-back-center-health • Drug Combo Extends Lifespan of Frail Old Mice by 73% A new aging study found that combining oxytocin with a compound called A5i extended the remaining lifespan of frail elderly male mice by 73%, while also improving function and tissue health. Dave explains why this is a big signal for the future of longevity medicine: stacking targeted interventions can outperform single compounds, especially when you start late in life. He also explains what to do with the idea right now: stop building random “everything stacks” and start thinking in phases, tracking outcomes, and waiting for real human combo data. -Source: https://www.futura-sciences.com/en/study-finds-drug-combo-could-slow-aging-and-increase-lifespan-by-73_23229/ • ChatGPT Health Turns Your Data Into a Health OS OpenAI launched ChatGPT Health, a dedicated health experience that lets you securely connect medical records and wellness apps like Apple Health and MyFitnessPal, so you can summarize visits, interpret labs, and prepare better questions for your doctor. Dave explains why this is a turning point for quantified self and protocol building: it reduces the friction of pulling data from five different places, and it makes pattern-finding accessible to nontechnical people. He also shares how to use it like a pro: clean inputs, smarter questions, and better doctor conversations. -Source: https://openai.com/index/introducing-chatgpt-health/ • Whole Milk Is Back in Schools The Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act restores whole and reduced-fat milk options in schools, aligning school nutrition rules with the updated dietary guidelines that no longer treat full-fat dairy like a default villain. Dave breaks down why this matters for child healthspan: satiety and nutrient density drive behavior, learning, and metabolic stability. He also explains why this is a real-world policy experiment worth watching across school districts, and how it can open the door for bigger institutional upgrades like better protein and fewer ultra processed items. -Source: https://www.usda.gov/about-usda/news/press-releases/2026/01/14/whole-milk-back-president-trump-signs-whole-milk-healthy-kids-act • Tirzepatide Trial Targets Biological Age With Aging Clocks A registered clinical trial titled Tirzepatide to Slow Biological Aging is using multiple DNA methylation aging clocks as primary endpoints, along with functional metrics like grip strength and a 6-minute walk test. Dave explains why this is a big maturity step for longevity science: instead of assuming metabolic improvement equals slower aging, this study is measuring biological age directly, across multiple clocks, with performance outcomes. He also shares the practical lesson for biohackers: stop relying on one favorite metric and start thinking in panels, function, and durability of results. -Source: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT07220473 All source links provided for direct access to the original research and reporting. This episode is designed for biohackers, longevity seekers, and high-performance listeners who want practical strategies rooted in cutting-edge science.

When the U.S. government released the new 2025–2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, most people probably didn't notice what didn't make headlines. But something important changed. For the first time in decades, the federal government removed specific drinking limits from its alcohol guidance. Gone was the already-weak recommendation of no more than one drink per day for women. Also missing? Any clear warning about alcohol's well-established link to cancer. What replaced it was vague language encouraging people to “drink less.” That might sound harmless. Reasonable, even. But when you look closely at the science—and the political and economic forces surrounding alcohol—this shift isn't neutral. It's dangerous. And it represents a clear retreat from evidence-based public health guidance at a time when alcohol-related harm in the U.S. is rising. In this episode, I'm taking a position:The new U.S. alcohol guidelines caved to Big Alcohol—and the consequences matter.

This week on the Naturally Nourished Podcast, we're digging into the newly released governmental nutrition guidelines. If you've been around here for any length of time, you know our core message has always been simple: eat real food. So imagine our surprise when these updated guidelines actually move closer to that exact philosophy, emphasizing whole foods, nutrient density, and fewer ultra-processed ingredients. It's not perfect, but it's a meaningful shift in the right direction, and one we never thought we'd see from official policy. In this episode, we break down what the guidelines got right, where they still miss the mark, and what this all means for real families navigating grocery stores, school lunches, and confusing nutrition messaging. We also revisit Ali's Optimal Eating Wheel she developed back in 2014 and compare it side-by-side with today's recommendations — and yes, she was about a decade ahead of her time. We share our top critiques from a food-as-medicine lens and unpack the potential ripple effects on schools, SNAP, and institutional food systems so you can understand how these changes may actually show up in everyday life.

Full shownotes, transcript and resources here: https://soundbitesrd.com/303 The new Dietary Guidelines for Americans were released on January 7, 2026 by HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins. These new guidelines state that they had concerns with the DGAC report because it framed it's analysis through a health equity lens and therefore disregarded most of the report instead relying on their own independent report. Tune in to this episode to learn about: · An overview of the new DGAs · The new upside down pyramid that replaces MyPlate · What has changed from the previous version and what has not changed · Hits, misses and inconsistencies · What the DGAs mean for people/families at home · What the DGAs mean for federal nutrition programs like school meals · What health professional organizations have to say about the new DGAs · Practical takeaways and tips for the public and health professionals · Resources for more information
In this Office Hours episode, I break down what the government finally got right about food, where the new guidelines still fall short, and—most importantly—how to apply them in real life without confusion or overwhelm. For the first time in decades, there's meaningful progress: a recognition that ultra-processed foods are harming us, that protein matters for optimal health, and that nutrition isn't one-size-fits-all. But there's still work to do. In this episode, I break down: • Why calling out ultra-processed foods is the most important—and historic—shift in the new guidelines • What the new protein recommendations actually mean for everyday people • Why the low-fat era is finally ending—and why whole foods matter more than isolated nutrients • Where the guidelines still fall short, including saturated fat limits, whole grain recommendations, and lack of personalization • How to apply the guidelines to kids and families without perfection or overwhelm • Why chronic disease is a policy problem—not a personal failure The new dietary guidelines are a foundation, not a finish line. Use them as a starting point: focus on food quality, reduce ultra-processed foods, prioritize protein, and personalize your choices based on how your body responds.

This week on The Wellness Scoop, we're digging into some of the biggest health stories shaping how we eat and live right now. We start with new data showing how weight-loss injections are quietly changing eating habits, with more people grazing on snacks instead of sitting down to meals, and what that could mean for nutrition, routine and long-term health. We then explore the idea of the “perfect” morning routine. Inspired by a Guardian piece we loved, we talk about why there's no one-size-fits-all formula, but how a handful of simple, repeatable habits can genuinely improve how the day begins without turning mornings into another thing to optimise. We also take on detox culture. Drawing on a grounded BBC article, we explain why your body already detoxes itself extremely effectively, what actually supports those systems, and why fibre is emerging as one of the most important nutrition conversations of the year. And we unpick the new US food guidelines for you.

Looking 4 Healing Radio with Dr. Benjamin Benulis – As with most government-issued nutrition guidance, there's a mix of progress and persistent problems.

The new food pyramid has officially been released, and many people are celebrating what looks like a major shift in nutrition advice — protein is finally at the top, saturated fat warnings appear softer, and the graphic itself suggests a more balanced approach. But when you go beyond the picture and read the actual dietary recommendations, the story becomes far more complicated. In this episode of the 2 Krazy Ketos Podcast, Joe and Rachel take a deep dive into the new food pyramid and break down what truly changed, what didn't, and where the contradictions start to appear. We examine how the updated guidelines still promote seed oils, allow ultra-processed foods, and send mixed messages around fruit, sugar, fat, and protein — despite appearing more keto-friendly on the surface. This episode covers: • New food pyramid explained • Dietary Guidelines contradictions • Protein recommendations and limits • Saturated fat vs seed oils • Sugar and fruit recommendations • Ultra-processed foods in modern nutrition • Why "allowed" doesn't always mean healthy • How to interpret nutrition guidelines for real-world fat loss and metabolic health If you follow keto, low-carb, carnivore, or simply want to improve your metabolic health, this episode helps you understand how to read nutrition guidelines critically — without fear, confusion, or blind trust in government graphics. Whether you're trying to lose fat, improve energy, reverse insulin resistance, or just make sense of conflicting nutrition advice, this breakdown of the new food pyramid gives you the context you need to make informed decisions for your health journey.

But what's worth your attention, and what can you safely scroll past?

Food advice that finally meets real life and your future.We break down the new U.S. Dietary Guidelines for 2025 and translate them into clear, doable steps you can apply today, whether you're an athlete, a busy parent, or just trying to feel better and think sharper. From higher protein targets to gut-friendly eating, we explore what matters, what to skip, and how to turn policy into a plate you can repeat.We start with personalization, calories, and hydration. Then we dig into the biggest shift: prioritizing protein at every meal, with a target of 1.2 to 1.6 g/kg and a focus on quality sources. We highlight microbiome health with vegetables, fruit, legumes, whole grains, and fermented foods, and explain why ultra-processed foods create the wrong gut signals over time.You'll hear practical guidance on fruits and vegetables, healthy fats from fish, eggs, nuts, seeds, olives, and avocados, and a realistic approach to whole grains that respects calorie budgets. We get candid about added sugars, plus alcohol moderation and sodium basics, including when active people should add salt for hydration. Finally, we share how to implement all of this to plan macros without overthinking and with some smart tools like your favotire chat bot. If this helped you rethink your plate, follow the show, leave a quick review, and share this episode with someone who wants more energy, better focus, and a simpler way to eat well.

(3:30) Protein levels are better, but recommendations for fat macros are still off. Institutions will follow the written guidelines, which are not necessarily reflected in the upside-down pyramid graphic. Institutions, like schools, have contracts with Big Food companies, which will affect how closely they follow the guidelines. (12:15) Chris goes through some of the guidelines. (15:30) The fat intake recommendations are off, in Vinnie's experience. (24:00) Saturated fat is limited to 10% of all fats. (30:00) Vinnie believes these guidelines are good overall, but didn't go far enough. (33:00) Institutions, companies, congresspeople, and others would most likely push back on a larger sweeping change. Whole grains, packaged breakfast options, and processed foods are at the bottom of the upside-down pyramid, and rightly so. (41:30) Limiting ultra-processed foods and refined carbs is recommended. (46:00) No meal should contain more than 10g of added sugars. It even defines what "added sugars" are. The last point discusses sodium and electrolytes.

After a lengthy delay that included much fretting among industry insiders, the 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) were unveiled earlier this month. Any fears that anti-alcohol activists had infiltrated the quinquennial process were eased, as the new guidelines preach moderation over specific daily drink allowances. Beer Marketer's Insights senior editor Christopher Shepard, who has followed the process closely, joined the Brewbound Podcast to discuss the DGA, the fraught path to publication and what this could mean for brewers. Before the featured interview, Zoe and Jess discuss recent beer industry headlines, including a proposed deal between the Reyes Beverage Group and Republic National Distributing Company, 2 Towns Ciderhouse's acquisition of Seattle Cider and the somewhat heartening data Circana published in the past month.

The 2026 Dietary Guidelines for Americans just dropped and the new upside-down food pyramid caused quite the chatter online this week. In this special Nutrition Newsroom roundtable, Colleen Sloan, PA, RDN, brings together nine nutrition experts to break down what the new guidelines actually are (and what they're not), what stayed the same, what changed, and what's missing. You'll hear respectful disagreement, real-world clinical concerns, and practical talking points you can use the next time a patient says, “So… butter is healthy now?”Here's what we discuss: What the Dietary Guidelines are designed to do and how they're created. Plus what was different about the 2026 processWhy the new pyramid graphic is creating mixed messages for clinicians and consumersThe most controversial updates: saturated fat, full-fat dairy, added sugar guidance for kids, new protein targets, and alcohol recommendationsHow to translate all of this into patient-friendly counseling without fearmongering or food shamingWhat experts say the guidelines missed: fiber, cultural diversity, access/affordability, and community surrounding mealsWhat are your thoughts on the new guideline?Resources:Dietary Guideline Advisory Committee ProcessScientific Foundation for the New GuidelinesNew Dietary GuidelinesConnect with the experts:Jennifer Van ZantChristina LinkCrystal DuqueBarbara RuhsTony CastilloMarina ChaparroKrystal ZunigaGisela BouvierDustin MooreAny Questions?

The 2026–2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans are out—and if you're feeling confused by the headlines or frustrated by the mixed messages, you're not alone.In this episode, I break down what the new guidelines actually say, why the return to a food pyramid is creating more confusion than clarity, and where the written recommendations don't match the visual messaging.We'll talk about protein, whole grains, saturated fat, dairy, red meat, processed foods, and added sugars—and why so many people are left wondering if they're “doing it wrong.”Most importantly, this episode focuses on what truly matters for health and how to apply nutrition guidance in real life—without restriction, perfection, or food guilt.In this episode, you'll learn:Why the new food pyramid and written guidelines send conflicting messagesHow protein, whole grains, and fats are being framed in ways that increase confusionWhat to actually focus on for balanced, sustainable eating in real lifeFollow us on Instagram @dailydietitianrdFree RecoursesDaily Dietitian Website
'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.

The new Dietary Guidelines for Americans will shape how the U.S. eats for the next five years — but are they based on science or industry influence? In this episode of The Exam Room Podcast, host Chuck Carroll is joined by Dr. Neal Barnard, Dr. Hana Kahleova, and registered dietitian Anna Herby to break down the good, the bad, and the troubling truths behind the newly released guidelines. In this episode, you'll learn: - Why eight of nine panelists had major industry conflicts - How meat and dairy ended up at the top of the new food pyramid - Why protein recommendations were nearly doubled - The hidden risks of saturated fat, red meat, and dairy - Why whole grains and legumes were minimized - What this means for heart disease, diabetes, and cancer risk - Why a legal petition has been filed to challenge the guidelines
The US dietary guidelines have shaped what Americans eat for decades, and the results haven't been good. Discover the new inverted food pyramid and the updated diet recommendations that could change everything.
This week, Dr. Kahn breaks down the newly released USDA 2025–2030 Dietary Guidelines and the surprising upside-down food pyramid they present. He explains how the final report differs from last year's Advisory Committee recommendations, including changes in committee membership and the influence of advisors with financial ties to the meat and dairy industries. Looking back at the original 1980 dietary guidelines, Dr. Kahn asks an important question: how much has really changed? His takeaway remains refreshingly simple—eat food, mostly plants, not too much. Short topics this week include urinary measurements of protein intake, optimal timing for surgery in dilated aortic roots, the cardiovascular risk of lipoprotein(a), and whether the science behind the Blue Zones truly holds up.

En los últimos meses se ha empezado a viralizar la nueva pirámide alimentaria invertida de las Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2025–2030, presentada como un gran cambio en la forma de entender la alimentación saludable DGA.Pero… ¿realmente lo es?En este episodio hago un análisis crítico de estas guías para explicar por qué no deberían tomarse como un referente de alimentación saludable, qué problemas tiene el propio diseño de la pirámide y por qué lo que se dibuja no siempre se corresponde con lo que el texto explica.Hablamos de:Por qué estas guías tienen un fuerte componente político y no solo científicoLa contradicción entre el mensaje visual de la pirámide y las recomendaciones escritasEl uso ambiguo del concepto “real food” y cómo puede malinterpretarseEl protagonismo excesivo de la proteína y los riesgos de trasladar ese mensaje sin contextoPor qué este documento es el terreno perfecto para que ciertos discursos keto o low carb se apropien de él, aunque el texto no lo respaldeUn episodio para aprender a leer más allá del dibujo, entender el contexto y evitar caer en interpretaciones simplistas o interesadas.Porque la nutrición no va de pirámides virales, sino de criterio, evidencia y sentido común.Conviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/comiendo-con-maria-nutricion--2497272/support.

A chaotic week in Washington was marked by major developments at home and abroad, including the fallout from federal agents firing shots in multiple incidents and heightened tensions surrounding potential U.S. action in Venezuela. The events have fueled debate over law enforcement accountability, national security, and how political leaders respond during moments of crisis. Colin Reed, Republican strategist and co-founder of South and Hill Strategies, joins the Rundown to assess how these moments could shape party unity as we head into the midterms. The Department of Health and Human Services announced new Dietary Guidelines for Americans, updating federal nutrition policy to encourage eating whole foods, including more protein, dairy, and vegetables, and less highly processed food. FDA Deputy Commissioner for Human Foods, Kyle Diamantis, joins to discuss the characteristics and concerns associated with ultra-processed foods, efforts to make healthier foods more affordable and accessible in underserved communities, and the role of the dietary guidelines in influencing federal nutrition programs.

Adam, Joanna, and Zach address the recent changes to America's dietary guidelines as issued by the Department of Health, in particular the removal of any particular limit on the number of alcoholic beverages considered safe. While the drinks industry is clearly viewing this a big win, and perhaps it is when compared to the much more anti-alcohol language that some feared would be used, will this actually halt the industry's overall slump? Do all that many people actually use these guidelines as, well, guidelines?

Economy Trump’s Tariffs Are Sinking The Eurozone German trade surpluses are shrinking, with 2025 exports to the US projected down 7% and overall trade surplus far below 2024 levels. Structural challenges—especially Chinese competition in automotive—compound short-term pressures, threatening Germany’s role as Eurozone anchor. A German recession risks Eurozone-wide contagion, potential ECB stimulus, and euro depreciation, clouding the outlook for 2026. Since tariffs stepped in, the Eurozone has struggled with exports and hasn’t even retaliated to them. A passive approach that shows off all its weaknesses and, above all, is sinking the economy of its major member: Germany. Germany was already stuck with a negative GDP growth before tariffs, but the latter are acting as a final blow for the third economy in the world. A couple of weeks ago I pointed out the main risks that concern Japan (the fourth economy in the world); now it is time to assess the shape of the German economy. How tariffs are hitting Germany Germany's total exports in 2024 amounted to $1.63 trillion, and 11% of these goods were exported to the US, the main trading partner. Just this data says a lot; in fact, Germany used to rely on the US to generate billions and billions of trade surpluses. A sort of Chinese approach, but at a lower scale. Now, almost every European good exported to the US is subject to a 15% tariff, which is making German goods less convenient for US companies. We know that the latter pay most of the tariffs, and this means bearing higher costs of goods sold, therefore lower profits.

The petition outlines explosive allegations regarding Sheriff McFadden's conduct over House Bill 10, a controversial state law mandating cooperation between local sheriffs and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Rep. Cunningham, a fellow Democrat who provided a critical vote to override the Governor's veto of the bill, alleges McFadden threatened her safety to influence her vote. According to the petition, McFadden told Cunningham that if she continued to support the bill, the “people of Mecklenburg County would ‘come after' her.” The filing claims McFadden added, “I don't want to see you get hurt. You live in my county.” Cunningham described the interaction as “akin to a mafia boss demanding money by saying ‘nice little store you've got there; it would be a shame if anything happened to it.’” District Attorney Merriweather confirmed he has asked the SBI's Professional Standards Unit to investigate the claims before his office decides whether to proceed with the removal petition. The DA's letter to the SBI specifically requests an investigation into: Extortion and bribery. Economic threats made to influence legislation. Hatch Act violations (regarding improper political activity). State campaign finance violations.

Brilliant Restitution Plan – President Trump Announces Interim Venezuela Oil Payment of $2 Billion This is way beyond winning, this is stunningly brilliant strategy. Not only has President Trump successfully apprehended Venezuela dictator Nicolas Maduro, but the remaining interim government officials have acquiesced to fund a civil restitution plan to pay for their malfeasance. The government that stole from its people is being forced to pay restitution for their own fraud, abuse and misconduct. [SOURCE] The 30 to 50 million barrels of oil is approximately a $2 billion self-created reconstruction effort. Compare and contrast this approach with the trillions of U.S. taxpayer funds that were used in the failed efforts in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, etcetera…. or even Kuwait, albeit the Kuwaiti's offered, but prior U.S. leadership chose influence over restitution. In this example, almost immediately the funds now in the control of President Trump can be deployed to the greater benefit of the Venezuelan people. Another way to look at this is like a type of ‘sovereign wealth fund' created by the corrupt Venezuelan officials, using the resources that belong to the Venezuelan people, to support the interim needs of the same citizens they victimized. Well done President Trump and Secretary Rubio! Source: theconservativetreehouse.com The second phase will be a phase that we call recovery. And that is ensuring that American, western, and other companies have access to the Venezuelan market in a way that’s fair, also at the same time, begin to create the process of reconciliation nationally, within Venezuela, so that the opposition forces can be amnestied and released from prisons, and brought back to the country, and begin to rebuild civil society. And then the third phase, is of course will be one of transition. Some of this will overlap. I’ve described this to them (Venezuela) in great detail. We’ll have more detail in the days to follow.

His agency is auditing all 14 Medicaid programs that Minnesota flagged as vulnerable to fraud; that excludes 73 other Medicaid programs Minnesota runs. The agency also will “claw back that money” from current Medicaid payments that were to be made to Minnesota, Oz told Fox News. “This is a major problem for the state, because they've got to own the fact that they have been bilking the federal taxpayer [because of] their sloppy behavior for years,” Oz said. Oz said his agency has had difficulty tracking at least $500 million in Medicaid payments to Minnesota. Available data makes it hard to figure out how it was billed and “where it went,” he said.

Just send them our way. […] We have great, common-sense policy. They have horrendous policy. What they do, is they stick together. They never have a no vote. Trump wasn’t whining that he is afraid of impeachment — he was spitting facts: if Democrats win, impeachment is inevitable; so, don’t let them win and show them this is how you do it. Trump made clear to Republicans that they must hammer home their common-sense, America-forward policies and contrast those against the truly terrible schemes of the Democrats. Trump said, “You can own health care. Figure it out.
