New US Dietary Guidelines

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
The nags are after us again. Now it is good.
It's good to eat healthy. I mean, let's be honest,
it's you know, you don't need fourteen lobsters in a
pie at every meal. But the new guidelines are out
and the nutritionists have weighed in, and we're joined for
a few minutes by Fox News Radios Jeff Bonazo, Jeff,

(00:20):
welcome back.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
Go to have you on Good morning, my friends. So
Americans should eat more beans and tet back on red meats.
No red meats, of course, you know, limit sugars and
sodiums and saturn. That's the advice released tuesday by a
panel it's still called nutrition experts uh huh, charged with
counseling the US government about the twenty twenty five edition

(00:42):
of the Dietary Guidelines that will form the you of
the federal you know, several federal food programs and of
course policy take them over two years to come up
with that.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
There's nothing new really really stay away from the red meat.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
Yeah, look at many Americans could argue, probably that they
are any more beings as a cheaper alternative to me
because of the economy. But you know what's in really incredible, guys,
is that the government panel had no opinion at all
the growing role of ultra processed foods that have been
linked to most of America's health problems. Seed oils, the dyes,

(01:20):
the chemicals that are by the way, banned in many
other countries but not ours. Heinz ketchup for example, it's
it's it's loaded with chemicals here, but it's all natural
sugars and and ingredients overseas because many countries ban that
kind of stuff. And it's also made here in both forms,

(01:41):
which is which is crazy. But you know, the the
panel saying that there's not enough evidence to tell people
to avoid ultra processed foods, even even though it's you know,
basically even to a considered like forty studies and and

(02:02):
and so that just wasn't enough evidence. It wasn't enough
a proof to be able to you know, be considered
within those studies to be able to make a well
reasoned decision. So, you know, I think when people hear this,
they're saying, Okay, so honey, we need to load up
on red meat because not to eat red meat. But

(02:25):
it's a serious thing. And by the way, this you know,
it's policy that that will be finalized in twenty twenty five.
So the Trump the income in Trump administration is going
to be able to sign off on all this. And
I would believe, I would bet that that this advice,
that that wording, that information is all going to change

(02:47):
before you know, before it's finalized.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
Well, I got a sneaking suspicion. If RFK junior, I
guess approved as HHS secretary, they suddenly will have an
evidence to decide that ultra processed foods need to be
uh need to be curtailed. You know.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yeah, it's clear that our juniors he's been very critical
of the findings and probably these findings and in the
so called experts themselves, who he's questioned over the potential
conflicts of interest, you know, who are they in bed with?
Have they in bed with Big Egg, Big you know,
big big, big Pharma, big big business, you know, some

(03:29):
of these other companies. The new guidance will ultimately again
be finalized by likely him. So yeah, expects the changes,
you know, not only in the guidance, but to massive
changes on how our food is processed going forward, as
ultra processed foods that include snacks and sugary cereals and
frozen meals. They make up about sixty percent of our diet,

(03:52):
so expect them changes.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
Yeah, so a lot of legumes, how you say, beans,
A lot of legumes, and I assume the fresh fruits
and vegetables. That's all good man and Leah, Look, we
love beef out here in Nebraska. Jeff, I gotta tell you,
and you might too, work where are you located?

Speaker 2 (04:14):
So I'm located in the Bureau is in Chicago, and
so I work in Illinois, but I do not live
in Illinois. And whether I'm not, I'm in Illinois or
neither state. Yeah, beef, that's definitely a go too. Yeah,
but I could do ribs. I could do ribs with beans.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
Yeah, chicken, it's all good. Yeah, it's all good. Yeah,
the beef with the thing with the with the beef.
And obviously it is a huge industry in our country,
and particularly right here in Nebraska. We've got we're number
two to Texas and the number of cattle raised. And
you don't have to you know, you don't have to
get the fattest cut and eat it three times a day.

(04:54):
Like nobody's ever heard of moderation, you know what I mean. Yeah, So, well,
we appreciate the pot this morning, Jeffrey, I have a
great Christmas, guys, Thank you so much. You bet, and
we'll be talking in the new year. I'm sure. Yeah.
We got more cattle than people like, quite a bit,
twice as many. That's just God bless them.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
Oh man, it's Nebraska producers. And again the left and
the crazies never think about this, but Nebraska has fed
the world. We have sent so much food overseas to
other countries for decades. This state has fed the world.
Now we're not the only one, but we're one of

(05:38):
the big ones. And I know that is heresy to
the left, and it's heresy to the nanny state. And
they don't want to hear it. And they say it's
dirty and grimy and it pollutes the water and kills things.
But it's saved billions of people. Amen, that's simple, pretty it, brother,
