Post a link if you want to go though it (although I really donāt feel like going through that effort), but I know the canadian and american health guidelines are incomplete and misleading, mostly based on out-dated science and lobby/self-interest groups. Hereās a quote as an example:
**Nutritious foods are the foundation for healthy eating.
Vegetables, fruit, whole grains, and protein foods should be consumed regularly. Among protein foods, consume plant-based more often.
Protein foods include legumes, nuts, seeds, tofu, fortified soy beverage, fish, shellfish, eggs, poultry, lean red meat including wild game, lower fat milk, lower fat yogurts, lower fat kefir, and cheeses lower in fat and sodium.**
This is the first guideline. Plant-based proteins arenāt healthier than properly sourced animal proteins and are less bio available. Legumes are pro-inflammatory. Fatty meat is better than lean red meat (again assuming itās reasonably sourced), low fat milk/yorgurt/kefir is just laughable as theyāre fortified with sugar and the fat is the healthy part. And low sodium recommendations are just ill-informed.
Thatās just their first guideline here in Canada. Itās a bloody mess.
edit: it wonāt format the quote correctly, itās the bit between the ** sets.
