Great news for the FDA changes. The food pyramid / perfect plate should have never been implemented, let alone lasted for decades.

Great news for the FDA changes. The food pyramid / perfect plate should have never been implemented, let alone lasted for decades. I still remember when "ketchup" was classified as a vegetable so it could count as part of that nutritious school lunch. I hope that gets done sooner rather than later, but suspect it's going to have a lot of fights with the big food industries. (Made even harder with all of the attacks on real meat for protein these days.)
And who knows? Maybe we'll see some dots connected soon for jabs and ... other health issues. We can only hope there. :-/
I was invited to give a “cooking for two”demonstration for seniors on a nationwide podcast a couple of years ago. I talked about the fallacies of the food pyramid and “My Plate.” Needless to say, I was NOT invited back.
Sad, but the history behind that is pretty bad to start with - that whole "7 nations" nonsense and then the insane push to do away with real foods. The nutritional experts who were working on the recommendations apparently were stunned when the guidelines were revealed, because they weren't even close to what they'd put forward.
I'm a product of that as well - I enjoyed all of those carbs over the years because they were tasty, but hardly healthy. :(
Yes and I have fallen head over heels in love with Dr. Makary!
Dr. Makary said that as soon as legally possible, the FDA will remove all pharma reps from advisory boards and replace them with patients and family caregivers. JUST PERFECT AS IT SHOULD BE
AND MY HEART'S DELIGHT
Dr. Makary also called for a moratorium on animal testing (2:29). “God did not make these animals on planet Earth for us to do cruel things to them and subjugate them,” he explained. He thinks computational models and lab-grown organs can handle most of the heavy lifting. “Those models should be replacing animal testing.”
Having an audit by the government this week to make sure we are serving compliant “meals” to our students. I am very hopeful that RFKjr. can rework our meal component requirements before my visit on Wednesday. 🤪

I could use a "cooking for two" demonstration, but it would be for just me.
So you'll have leftovers. 🙃

Our school’s healthy breakfast: 2 chocolate muffins, packaged fruit, milk. Sugar overload. First thing in the morning 🤯.
