Americans should eat more beans, peas and lentils and cut back on red and processed meats and starchy vegetables, all while continuing to limit added sugars, sodium and saturated fat.
The article from NBC Chicago discusses the upcoming 2025 update to the U.S. Dietary Guidelines, which are expected to recommend a shift towards more plant-based foods like beans and less red meat. This change is influenced by a growing body of research highlighting the health benefits of plant-based diets, including lower risks of heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers. The guidelines, which are revised every five years, aim to address not only nutritional health but also environmental sustainability. The article notes that while red meat has been a staple in American diets, its high saturated fat content and association with increased health risks are pushing the dietary shift. Additionally, the guidelines will likely emphasize the importance of dietary patterns over individual nutrients, encouraging a holistic approach to eating that includes a variety of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and legumes.
