Commenter #13 = @WaliPriyanka and she just dropped the MIC on this committee. "THE DGA is a Joke. Know your audience. Half of the country is prediabetic. Sugar intake should be 0%!"

@WaliPriyanka Commenter #7 = @low_carb_doc pushing for a low carb / keto based on science and practice.

@WaliPriyanka @low_carb_doc Commenter #14 - Meat-based protein is more bioavailable and healthier than ANY plant-based protein. "Americans would have to consume many more calories to get enough protein."

@WaliPriyanka @low_carb_doc Commenter #15 - Beef delivers necessary vitamins, protein. Beef is nutrient dense. No other protein food delivers 10 vitamins at such a high rate.

@WaliPriyanka @low_carb_doc "Jeffry Gerber, M.D.
​Well said Dr Priyanka Wali. ~2/3rds of 'healthy' Americans are carbohydrate intolerant. The DGA should include a recommendation to eat less sugar and carbs."

@WaliPriyanka @low_carb_doc Commenter #17 - vegetables and fruit shill Molly

Commenter #18 - vegan - Amy (thinks there are healthy carbohydrates lol)

@WaliPriyanka @low_carb_doc C #19 - 1000 days of pregnancy / early life.

@WaliPriyanka @low_carb_doc @PCRM C28 - @bigfatsurprise @4dietaryreform Dietary Guidelines has ignored clinical trials (gold standard) which could not show that limiting saturated fat or cholesterol was helpful. DGA was lacking scientific rigor. @USDA should follow GRADE.

Thinks consumers need appropriate portion balance. I think that is hogwash. Eat meat when hungry. Stop when full. Portions = variable based on that hunger.

"you can have cake in your diet"

"Everything in moderation"
