Grains were at the bottom \u2014 a signal to eat plenty of them, and oils and fats were at the top, a signal to eat them sparingly. The USDA retired the entire pyramid concept in June 2011, replacing it with the simpler &#8216;MyPlate&#8217; visual, introduced by First Lady Michelle Obama. Now, the plate has been retired, and the pyramid has made a come-back \u2014 but this time it&#8217;s turned upside down. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This approach can change the health trajectory for so many Americans,&#8221; Kennedy and Rollins wrote, pointing out that more than 70% of American adults are overweight or obese due to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2025\/07\/24\/nx-s1-5477662\/diet-exercise-obesity-nutrition\" target=\"_blank\">diet that has<\/a> &#8220;become reliant on highly processed foods and coupled with a sedentary lifestyle.&#8221;<\/p>\n<aside id=\"ad-secondary-wrap\" class=\"ad-wrap secondary\" aria-label=\"advertisement\">\n<\/aside>\n<p>For years, Americans have been advised to limit saturated fat, and the new pyramid is facing criticism.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m very disappointed in the new pyramid that features red meat and saturated fat sources at the very top, as if that&#8217;s something to prioritize.

He was a member of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietaryguidelines.gov\/2025-advisory-committee-report\" target=\"_blank\">Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee<\/a>, which reviewed all the nutrition evidence. He&#8217;s in favor of increasing plant-based sources of protein, such as beans, rather than emphasizing animal protein.<\/p>\n<p>Both the American Heart Association and the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, which includes thousands of nutrition professionals, point to evidence that excess saturated fat is linked to heart disease. And the new guidelines do still include a long held recommendation to limit saturated fat to 10% of your daily calories.<\/p>\n<p>The guidelines also elevate cheese and other dairy to the top of the pyramid, paving the way for the option of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/sections\/shots-health-news\/2025\/09\/08\/nx-s1-5528747\/what-kind-of-dairy-does-a-body-good-science-is-updating-the-answer\" target=\"_blank\">full-fat milk<\/a> and other dairy products in school meals.
