The war on protein, from what I can tell, is that the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee, who published the initial recommendations that they did not use to make these new guidelines, specifically said that we need to have an emphasis on plant-based proteins.
And they had the audacity to suggest that beans, peas, and lentils –
should be taken out of the vegetables group and grouped with the proteins group.
Yes, but peas, Erin, they're green.
I wonder when it switched.
Okay, okay.
That's the war.
That is the war.
That's the war on protein.
I'm not done.
Okay.
Yeah.
The last and I think the most egregious change, the ones that people are really kind of up in arms about, is the changes in terms of the recommendations on fat.
And I hinted at this already.
Yes.
So just like every other guideline forever, these guidelines explicitly say that we should be limiting our total saturated fat intake to less than 10% of our diet.
That has not changed.
Because the data to support that is so strong, that has not changed.
However, the new guidelines say that we should be incorporating healthy fats, quote unquote healthy fats, and they repeatedly list butter and beef tallow many times as options for healthy fats.
These fats are 50% saturated fat compared to liquid fats like olive oils, vegetable oils, seed oils, which are like 10% saturated fat.
