White House Pyramid

RFK unveiled the Trump administration's new dietary guidelines today. Significant for acknowledging the low carb craze and the discouraging of processed foods. As I run down the sources, no mention of 

Pesticides

Vitamin A

The All-Beef Diet (zero vitA by the backdoor)

So an update for the first time in 75 years, but falls short of what people on this site would look for I believe.

The real meat and potatoes, the science they cite. Pretty last-decade to me.

Less well off people are not going to stick to this pyramid at all, starches are cheap sources of calories. And there's nothing wrong with them. There's about a billion or more people in the world that use them for energy.

I'm not anti starch but do wonder if, once you are having issues with cells not listening to insulin, do you need to cut back on carbs?

Still, you don't make the pyramid based on those with disease.   The pyramid is for healthy people, and you work from there if you need a special diet because of a condition.

The posts and replies on twitter about this are a rip.  Worth reading pages of them.  Amazing how many flip out and how many parody hard.
