Hmmmm what happened to fats ?

This isn't much of an improvement. There is no mention made of limiting sugar and processed carbs. Assuming anyone would follow these guidelines (been there, done that, got the T-Shirt), they would simply replace their cereals, muffins, bagels and orange juice by whole-grain cereals, muffins, bagels and well orange juice. So what exactly is the difference apart from getting a little more fiber in your diet. Do they think fiber is going to stem the obesity epidemic ??

What they need to do is have a STRONG statement warning people against eating sugar and processed carbs. Have them favor unprocessed food in reasonable quantities. Avoid starches and high glycemic food. Just that would have a huge impact. A lot of people, would loose weight if only they cut out the processed carbs.

However, since America is not ruled by an elected governement but by lobby groups, this is never going to happen. Can't afford stepping on the toes of the big corporpations and their cash cows.
