• Fats and Dairy: The guidelines recommend cooking with "healthy fats," like olive oil, butter, and beef tallow, while maintaining the recommendation to limit saturated fat to no more than 10% of daily calories. They also explicitly recommend full-fat dairy products with no added sugars, representing a departure from previous emphasis on low-fat alternatives.
• Added Sugars: DGA says no one meal should contain more than 10 grams of added sugars, or about 2 teaspoons — a more restrictive approach than the previous recommendation of less than 10% of daily calories. The guidelines also state that no amount of added sugar is considered part of a healthy diet. This aligns with efforts to reduce cardiometabolic risk across all age groups.
