It’s no secret that government institutions have been dishing out flawed advice in recent years—and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGAs) are no exception. From outdated food pyramids to industry-influenced recommendations, the DGAs have long shaped national eating habits with consequences we’re still paying for.

This week, IMA Senior Fellow Dr. JP Saleeby hosts a conversation with fellow IMA Senior Fellows Dr. Kristina Carman and Dr. Michael Turner to unpack the problems with the Food Pyramid (and its modern cousin, MyPlate). They’ll explore the history of flawed nutritional advice, the industry influence behind government food policy, and how these guidelines have contributed to today’s chronic disease epidemic.

From the demonization of saturated fat to the uncritical promotion of vegetable oils and low-fat processed foods, this conversation aims to expose what’s broken—and what a healthier, evidence-based alternative might look like.
