The Secretaries of Agriculture and Health and Human Services announced the new, 20-member advisory committee for the 2020 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. This expert group that will evaluate the science underpinning our dietary guidelines is more diverse that previous committees. It includes Dr. Lydia Bazzano, a Tulane University MD PhD who was the lead investigator on a 2014 NIH-funded low-carb diet trial. The group also includes and Dr. Joan Sabaté, a professor of nutrition and epidemiology and Seventh-Day Adventist, which is a faith with religious dictums that include vegetarianism. Here’s Agri-Pulse’s take on the new panel.

I’d go so far as to say that low-carb advocates might have an easier time persuading skeptics if they didn’t make that kind of unreasonable claim. But reducing carbohydrate intake seems like a perfectly healthful way to eat, and it has helped a lot of people lose weight and manage disease. It deserves a good, hard look.
