What is the relationship between the Dietary Guidelines and USDAs Food Guidance System?
The Dietary Guidelines are a foundation of the Food Guidance System, which presents the science in a consumer-friendly form that helps people to be healthier by applying the science to their own lives. The Food Guidance System replaces the Food Guide Pyramid, incorporates the 2005 Dietary Guidelines and makes recommendations on what and how much to eat.
