Why are “The Dietary Guidelines for America” so important?

Firstly the food programs in our schools and hospitals are the ones which are following these governmental protocols. Can you imagine if “we, they” had gotten it wrong for the last hundred years? What if the science of biology was sidelined for expediency to stabilize the economy? What if religion and greed had set the foundation of the food pyramid? What would be the implications of this on a global scale when the USA is the world leader and every other country seems to “westernize” and follow?

I saw a meme that was trying to raise awareness about government telling you what not to eat but I immediately thought ….it is more worrisome to me what foods & education government is supporting with my tax dollars. I’m pretty sure no one wants to be sickly, malnourished and over weight.

I’ve heard the term “The Standard of Care” in many doctors interviews. This seems to be the determining factor for what information a doctor may share with you according to the government. I guess he who controls “The Standard of Care” controls doctors patients.
